I can confirm this behavior in Hardy 8.04.1, on 9 different servers that I administrate.
I can confirm the workaround of adding the user to the "lpadmin" group to bypass the prompt for a password and add a printer, whereas before it would continually ask for a password, even when entering it correctly. This issue probably affects anyone trying to add a printer that isn't part of the "lpadmin" group. Yikes. -- system-config-printer won't accept password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
