Confused by CUPS on SuSE 10.0

10 Aug 2006

      Server running SuSE 10.0, CUPS 1.1.23, run mode 3

Trying to administer CUPS from workstation via port 631 and Firefox browser.

At server command line, I've set up lppasswd -g sys -a john and added a 
password.

In browser, connect to http://server:631/admin, enter user name and 
password and am allowed in.

However, I can only add printer and class. Anything else results in 
error 403, Forbidden. What is causing this message and how can I get 
round it, please?

Many thanks

John
