[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#520396: cups fails to print on polled printers with client-error-not-authorized

[Sigmund Scheinbar]

Package: cups
Version: 1.3.8-1lenny4.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Since upgrading from etch to lenny printing on polled printers fails:

user at client-host:~$ lpstat -p
printer mfp_4730 is idle.  enabled since Thu 19 Mar 2009 10:38:44 CET
CEST
[...]
user at client-host:~$ lp -d mfp_4730 /tmp/cpuinfo
lp: The printer or class is not shared!

The server log looks like this:
/var/log/cups/access_log:
192.168.2.2 - - [19/Mar/2009:11:44:00 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 417

My Server config is quite lenny default plus one Allow line per Location
directive:

 # Only listen for connections from the local machine.
-Listen localhost:631
+Listen *:631
 Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock

 # Show shared printers on the local network.

Of course printing from any GUI e.g. kdeprint also fails.

Just for testing a attached an old printer on my local sever - which
works fine, however for my purpose cups is (since the upgrade) unusable
for me and all users on the network.
