Title:
Printer configuration "Not authorized"
Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: system-config-printer
At work we have a printer server, which previously I accessed (up
through Ubuntu 7.10) by creating a file client.conf with
ServerName <server>
in it and placing this file in ~/.cups/
As long as I was on the VPN for work, I could access these printers.
Up through Ubuntu 7.10, going to System->Administration->Printing
would show the list of printers, and I could select a default printer,
view printer statuses, etc.
As of installing Ubuntu 8.04, when I go to
System->Administratino->Printing, I am presented with an error that
reads: Not authorized The password may be incorrect, or the server may
be configured to deny remote administration.
I never had to enter a password before to see the printers. And it's
certainly not my intent to administer the printers. I would simply
like to select a different default printer.
I confirmed my user account is a member of the lpadmin group. I saw
nothing particular in the cupsd.conf that changed between 7.10 and
8.04. I have provided the diff as an attachment.
The only line that appears in the cups error_log is:
E [01/May/2008:14:40:00 -0400] CUPS-Set-Default: Unauthorized
