I did some more digging and found that I am having a problem with the
loopback interface: here is some more info
ifconfig
sk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.0.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255

cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.foo.bar localhost amd64 localhost.localdomain
192.168.1.175 amd64.foo.bar amd64 amd64.foo.bar.
when I try ping I get:
]# ping localhost
PING localhost.foo.bar (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
what does this mean and how do you fix it?

Subject: cups problem
I recently upgraded from 5.3 to 5.4 release, and I just noticed CUPS is
not working properly. It is running as a proess:
ps -aux|grep cups
root 410 0.0 0.6 4792 3216 ?? Ss 5:18PM 0:00.01
/usr/local/sbin/cupsd
but when I try to login thru the web interface I get a dialog box saying
"connection refused" when attempting to contact localhost:631.
The manual is not helpful regarding this problem. I have stopped the
daemon, and deinstalled/reinstalled the software but it has not fixed the
problem. How do I go about diagnosing/fixing the problem? Any help is
appreciated.
TIA,
Andy
