Access CUPS configuration interface from another PC

I just installed CUPS which, from what I've been reading, has a configuration interface on port 631. I want to access this interface from another PC so I dont have to configure X on my server. When I try to access it, it tells me that I'm not authorizedto view that page. However, I can access pages on port 80. My hosts.allow has "cups:all" and I have commented everything out on my hosts.deny. What am I missing?

default cups config restricts you to localhost. Try webmin?
