Jeff,

I have taken down all these systems and either backed them down to  
lenny, or installed Gentoo on them to get print serving working again.

What was submitted was one example of about a dozen different  
permutations I had tried to get this to work on four different  
systems, and it was a while ago, so i don't remember the specifics of  
it.  Maybe the one I sent wasn't the best example... If you like, I  
can find a machine, reinstall squeeze, and start over.

Have you tried to replicate what I'm talking about here though?  It  
was pretty easily replicable with a stock install.  I have been  
following well documented materials in what I'm doing regarding  
setting up cups with raw print queues.  I was not doing anything  
strange -- unless there is something just plain different about this  
version of cups in squeeze.  Like I said, I have been doing this for  
years and never had any issues like this, and backing down to lenny or  
switching distros "fixed" the issue...

Again, I'm happy to start over if we can get to the bottom of this --  
I have clients (customers) I'd really like to update to squeeze yet,  
but I don't want to put their operations at risk by upgrading and  
running into this problem again.  I'll set up a box tonight, try  
again, and get back to you...  Also, if you prefer, I can email you  
directly, and leave this out of the bug system until we have a better  
handle on what is going on -- if you like.

Thank you very much for your time.

Chris
