[cups.general] What Name? What Password

[alexhuk at yahoo.com]

Thanks for the hints. I'm having the same experience as others with this.

I was able to perform the hints below but still no luck (passwd.md5 has correct new entries, still can't get root/root-passwd accepted). Any other pointers?

Thanks
Alex
