   CUPS and SSL problems   
   04 Dec 22 12:00:26   
   
   From: lsodgf0@home.net.it   
      
   I upgraded the server in my lan to a new machine and installed in it the   
   Slackware64-15.0 with latest patches.   
   All was running OK but 'cups'.   
      
   Since the server doesn't have graphic support I can't administer it from   
   remote because I can't setup encryption.  I was able to see the web   
   interface but only for displaying print queues.  Any attempt to enter   
   the admin pages causes the browser to ask for encryption but cups can't   
   create the certificates.   
      
   I started using the configuration from previous installation (14.2 used   
   with encryption) but it didn't work so I reinstalled the cupsd package   
   from scratch (and the patches) testing a few changes to the   
   configuration with no result.  Any attempt to use encryption, even from   
   the command line, results in the error (2 entries for each attempt):   
      
   E [04/Dec/2022:11:53:58 +0100] [Client 125] Unable to encrypt   
   connection: Unable to create server credentials.   
   E [04/Dec/2022:11:53:58 +0100] [Client 126] Unable to encrypt   
   connection: Unable to create server credentials.   
      
   Has anybody succeeded in using encryption with cups?  Is it a problem in   
   my configurations?   
      
   Thank in advance for any help in identifying the problem!   
      
   Ciao
