Title:
  Cups server can't listen - accept connections to 127.0.1.1  ( Bad
  request )

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As we know ubuntu binds the following

  127.0.0.1 localhost
  127.0.1.1 hostname

  We assume that my hostname  is afterburner

  Cups listens by default to localhost - 127.0.0.1  so if you try to
  access it using your hostname it fails so i proceed as follows

  In the cupsd.conf

  If i comment out the  " port 631 " and add

  Listen afterburner:631

  im getting bad request when trying to open http://afterburner:631

  The same is happening with the

  Listen 127.0.1.1:631

  All this happening when trying to access cups webpage form the pc that
  running the cups , if you try to access the cups server form a lan pc
  using the http://afterburner:631  it works even with the default
  config.

  So my question is  why using all the different configurations  im not
  able to access cups webpages from the same pc using the hostname ?

  http://afterburner:631

  I can only access cups from the same pc using

  http://127.0.0.1:631
  http://localhost:631

  when using the default cupsd.conf that listens to "port 631"
