Hi everyone!
As you might guess I am new here, so: Hello and thank you for Arch Linux!
At the beginning I was a bit shocked and paniced, but I think this way will teach me a lot about Linux... and its bugs
Finally, I managed to setup the network, download and install KDE4... but now I would like to setup the printer via CUPS and I discovered that localhost is not accessible via Konqueror, though I can ping it from the console (ping -c 3 localhost).
Lynx would also not connect to localhost:631 giving "unable to connect to remote host"
Maybe I have made a stupid mistake somewhere and I dunno where...
Many thanks for any help
Rainer

First you must install cups by running (as root)
pacman -S cups
Then start the daemon (as root)
/etc/rc.d/cups start
.
You can also place it in the daemon list in /etc/rc.conf to start it automatically on boot.
Your daemon list should be now like this:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng hal network netfs crond cups)

how do you expect CUPS to work when it's not installed/running

***thank you***
Stupid me! Yeah, that's what windows and ubuntu do to you... installing things and then you think it will run
I did install cups, but I forgot to start the deamon ! of cource it will not work then...
now, it is there...
but now I am going to install xsane... wonder what I am going to forget next.
(installing hplip and adding hpaio: to sane/dll.conf...?)
the nice thing is though, once it all works it works! (I hope)

Dont be afraid to use the wiki:

Note that you won't be able to access your scanner through SANE before you manually add your user to the group scanner.
