I have followed the instructions for installing CUPS exactly as they are indicated in the handbook. When I get to the step indicating I can browse to the web based interface, it gives me a 403 Forbidden error. I am attempting to access the web based interface from another workstation since the server is only intended to be a print server. It has no window managers configured. (http://x.x.x.x:631)
