[cups.general] cups permission errors

does anyone have any suggestions how I can track down where these
permission problems are coming from? I'm at a loss, been messing with
every configure option I thought might help, and changing permissions of
all sorts of directories (in a test environment of course) and I still
haven't made any progress.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
