My client.conf's entry is "ServerName /var/run/cups/cups.sock" only. I used to have the CUPS server in there, but it seems this is no longer necessary. Changes on the sever show up on the clients in less than a minute I'd say. I do not know whether the client searches the local subnet for a server, or whether a server broadcasts its existence along the subnet, but it just works here. But why it doesn't work for you? I don't know :( Wonko
