Thanks, that's a good point.  CUPS does have a UNIX socket that it
listens on, and it probably would be better to use that instead of the
IP address; if nothing else, Unix sockets have less overhead.  Reopening
this bug then, and updating the summary to reflect this.

** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Low => Wishlist
       Status: Invalid => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- SMBD hangs on startup if lo is down
+ SMBD should use /var/run/cups/cups.sock to talk to cups

-- 
SMBD should use /var/run/cups/cups.sock to talk to cups
