First of all, why don't you fix that annoying error with /etc/rc.d/functions.d that pops up on every rc script invocation?
OK - you're on, don't keep me in suspense, just go ahead and tell me what notice I missed that says do X or Y to fix the very annoying /etc/rc.d/functions.d that pops up with every init... I thought that was a side effect of the bashification of the init scrips and that an update would fix it? wrong?
As for cups: the default cupsd.conf contains "Listen localhost:631" and "Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock". I think your cupsd.conf contains an entry for 443 also there.
Damn, your clairvoyant: # # "$Id: cupsd.conf.in 8805 2009-08-31 16:34:06Z mike $" # # Sample configuration file for the CUPS scheduler.

ServerName nirvana.3111skyline.com ServerAdmin david@3111skyline.com ServerAlias nirvana ServerAlias www.3111skyline.com ServerAlias localhost # Allow remote access Port 631 SSLPort 443 <snip> now #SSLPort 443 I have no recognition of making that change and don't know why I would have done that. Could that be a host:631 cups auto setting in response to some other selection? The problem with your setup is that your setup
relies on a failure: apache binds to https before cups can, so cups doesn't bind to 443 anymore.
(I see that) Because you're using backgrounding, any
update to your system can interfere with timing and cause issues like these if your configuration is not right.
Yes, I'm using backgrounding and my config hasn't changed since I first started using Arch and was done in response to a post here pointing out that it was recommended to bring up hal in the DAEMONS line and then background everything thereafter up to your display manager. Was that advise incorrect? I have been running with the following: DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network hal named @netfs @ntpd @sshd @dhcpd @crond @avahi-daemon @postfix @mysqld @dovecot @httpd @hylafax @samba @cups @sensors @upsd kdm) What needs to be changed? Or -- where is an Arch reference that provides the pros & cons of backgrouding the various processes? I guess I have been lucky because Arch has been bullet-proof since April '09 as my primary server. Last night was the first DAEMONS issue I had run into except for the little 'display manager respawning too fast' nit. What say the experts on the backgrounding issue? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
