See /usr/share/YaST2/include/printer/sharing.ycp "Only if all the above was successfully set, Listen is set too" According to your y2log there was no change in the "Allow Remote Access" section of the dialogs (I would expect some "Executing bash commandline" lines which show in y2log which show the actual changes). In this case it leaves the cupsd.conf file untouched. It seems you have for whatever reason a somewhat strange cupsd.conf (having some kind of "allow from remote" settings but without a matching "Listen" setting). Without a real need YaST respects your settings in cupsd.conf. I will not implement whatever automated change in cupsd.conf without having a real change request from the user. For me it looks as if it works exactly as it should. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

My assumption in comment #1 was correct because you have in your cupsd.conf ------------------------------------------------------ Allow From @LOCAL .. BrowseAddress @LOCAL ------------------------------------------------------ without a matching Listen entry, you have only ------------------------------------------------------ Listen localhost:631 Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock ------------------------------------------------------ Your settings in your cupsd.conf are not wrong but they are inconsistent. Therefore in the YaST Share Printers dialog there is the checkbox for "Allow From @LOCAL" which is "[X] For computers within the local network" and the checkbox for "BrowseAddress @LOCAL" which is "[X] Publish printers by default within the local network" preselected. But because it listens only on localhost the "(*) Deny Remote Access" radio button is preset, see the initSharing function in /usr/share/YaST2/include/printer/sharing.ycp how "listen_remote" is set and below the "if( listen_remote ..." condition. All what you do is to activate the radio button "(*) Allow Remote Access" but unfortunately this change alone is not tested in /usr/share/YaST2/include/printer/sharing.ycp because in its ApplySharingSettings() function it checks in the "Any kind of allow_remote_access" section only if real values have changed. I do such a restrictive check because I want to avoid useless changes of cupsd.conf and subsequent useless restarts of the cupsd as much as I can. As a workaround change any real value too. E.g. add a safe IP like '127.0.0.1' from which access is allowed. Do not use '127.0.0.2' which is another special case in /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/modify_cupsd_conf which leads to a bug which I will fix too. I will add another restrictive check for the special case like yours: When initially YaST finds out it is "Deny Remote Access" and the user changed it to "Allow Remote Access" but nothing else changed, then it must also change cupsd.conf and do a cusd restart if there is at least one real value set from which remote hosts access should be allowed. Very many thanks for testing it! Only real tests on real systems out there in the real world help me so that I can fix even such special case bugs. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

First it displays that "Deny..." is enabled and then asks you if the cups server should be restarted (no idea why). So answer yes and the display jumps to "Allow...". So all looks good again in theory. Now leave the module immediately with "Verwerfen" (Abort/Cancel/whatever) and check your cupsd.conf. It has been changed to Listen localhost:631 :-( -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Why did you change the secure default "Order allow,deny" to an insecure "Order Deny,Allow" in your cupsd.conf in attachment #249752 [details]

See http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/ref-cupsd-conf.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- allow,deny - Deny requests by default, then check the Allow lines followed by the Deny lines deny,allow - Allow requests by default, then check the Deny lines followed by the Allow lines -------------------------------------------------------------------------

yast2-printer resets it to the secure default.

I'm not sure why and if at all I changed that at some point but if yast2-printer corrects it I'm fine with it. Thanks for fixing the issues. I'll try the latest package. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
