Can't cancel jobs unless root

Do you have the <Location /jobs> section of cupsd.conf setup correctly? Here's what I use:

##allow everyone access, insecure!
<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From None
Allow From All
</Location>
 

<Location /jobs>
#
# You may wish to limit access to job operations, either with Allow
# and Deny lines, or by requiring a username and password.
#
AuthType Basic
AuthClass User
</Location>


Regards,
Dane

I start printing something as a regular user, and when I go to cancel it through the web interface (http://127.0.0.1:631/), it says "client-error-forbidden".  Shouldn't I be allowed to cancel any job that I started?
