Hi All,
Before you shake the finger at me, all of the below were "no security"
installations,
Twice on FC21 machines and once on a OSx machine I have been caught not
being able to use CUPS (http://127.0.0.1:631) because the
"administration" function required the root's (OSx was the user's)
password. And, they had it and all others set to blank password. Cups
must have a password, so I couldn't use the administration functions.
Is there a way around this besides assigning a password (which will
not endear me to the customer[s])?
Many thanks,

From CUPS FAQ:
A: If you have setup your computer to not require a password or have a
blank or empty password, then the CUPS web interface will not work for
you. CUPS requires a login username and password to allow you to make
changes through the web interface.
Bummer.
