From 3a8222c59dfbbeceb3f3e57bd390fd22c7c22605 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rose <83477269+AtariDreams@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2022 19:14:49 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Change cupsd.conf to force authentication when accessing administration With the current default configuration, anyone can request to Find New Printers without being authenticated and with no way to be authenticated. Without authentication cups does not detects printers on the network. The person might not realize that it's because authentication is missing. It seems natural to always offer to authenticate when accessing the administration page.
