Public bug reported:
Hi.
I just installed Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon". When I click on "System ->
Administration -> Printing", at the end of the "defining printer"
process, I am taught to enter a password to contact the (CUPS) server.
My password doesn't work. I can though open a session, configure my
system as I wish, and write this bug report ;) !
I think I found the origin of this bug. Let me explain : the first user
I create during the installation process is, say, toto, with password
azerty (french user ;) !) After reboot, I log in the system as toto, and
create a second user, say titi, password qsdfgh. I use the first user as
a "generic administration account". The second user account is an
account for real work. For my own account on my own computer, I give
myself administrator's rights.
If, in the "printing configuration" interface, I fisrt click on "Go to
server", and set "user name" to toto, and then use toto's password,
everything works fine. I can define and use the printer. If I use the
predefined user (titi), it's impossible to finish the declaration
process.
Regards, Al.
