DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE. INSTEAD, POST ANY RESPONSES TO THE LINK BELOW. [STR New] OS: Ubuntu 10.04 x64 A busy printserver easily gets DoS-ed by itself when IPv6 is enabled. Somehow it cannot recognize its own localhost address as local address, despite the code being in place for that. This is what I see in the logs, when random CGI pages become unavailable in CUPS web interface. Notice how the client is represented as "v1.::1", not sure why: W [02/Nov/2012:20:30:37 +0000] Possible DoS attack - more than 10 clients connecting from [v1.::1]! This is my /etc/hosts file: $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.12.200 printserver-test ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts This is my Port directives from cupsd.conf (I don't use domain socket and Listen directives): Port 631 SSLPort 443 Link: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L4221 Version: 1.5.4
