https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397125 Steven De Herdt changed: What|Removed |Added CC||steven.dehe...@gmail.com --- Comment #3 from Steven De Herdt --- Hello I'm having a look at this in the hope of getting print-manager included in Debian's next stable release. However, I have only little experience in C++, and none with KDE hacking. How can we detect when a password is required for a remote server? Is that only through the KCupsConnection in ChooseUri.cpp:122, or am I mistaken? Regards -Steven -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I think that the dialog could do with that additional information, making it clear that you are about to expose the password to the server and/or the whole network (if sent non encrypted). Happy hacking, -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397125 --- Comment #1 from Daniel Nicoletti --- You will never send your password to a remote server unless you configure your CUPS local file settings to use a remote server. About certificates this is CUPS-API which doesn't provide any, and usually runs unencrypted. The is nothing I can do to improve this AFAIK because it's all dependent on user settings and CUPS-API IIRC doesn't provide extra information... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
