Just installed Leap 15.
When going to the cups admin page (http://localhost:631/admin) I get the following message:
“Enter your username and password or the root username and password to access this page. If you are using Kerberos authentication, make sure you have a valid Kerberos ticket.”
There is no login prompt, although I expect a login prompt (for root + passwd).
In /var/log/cups/error_log, there are the following lines:
W [04/Aug/2018:10:14:28 +0200] CreateProfile failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:The name org.freedesktop.ColorManager was not provided by any .service files

cups seems to be running as user ‘lp’:
# ps auxwww | grep cups
root 986 0.0 0.1 91796 8488 ? Ss 10:14 0:00 /usr/sbin/cupsd -l
lp 1167 0.0 0.0 84092 5780 ? S 10:14 0:00 /usr/lib/cups/notifier/dbus dbus://
Does anyone have a suggestion to make cups provide a prompt with credentials when visiting the printer pages…???
