Make sure you are restarting CUPS after making changes to cupsd.conf.

Also, try doing 'sudo iptables -F' on the server  machine.  If that
fixes the problem, then you need to add a firewall rule to allow port
631.

I don't think that error message is related - I think that's a
separate issue with CUPS attempting to grab/scan the serial port(s).
