Most likely you have "AuthClass System" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, under the <Location /admin> section, and "sys" as the default SystemGroup in that file.
You need to add a user to the sys group in /etc/group.

When I go to localhost:631 I get the correct response, choose administration, and then am asked for the username and password. If I use root and the root pw, no luck - authentication failed. No matter what I try it fails. I've looked over all the newsgroups, setup guides, howtos, everything and can't seem to find any help.
