running suse9.1 on intel. I had this web access password problem. I read somewhere to use the following commnad. It worked.

lppasswd -g sys -a root  >> repeat for -a admin
        creates /etc/cups/passwd.md5
	root:sys:a1d97031db216b38656c8b60bee4916e
	admin:sys:3f07a294465a1e392f85a864bc29dbe0
Recycle cupsd if required..
