[cups] Authority Issue at Command line

[Haines, Brandan]

All:

I am attempting to install and configure CUPS 2.0.2.  I am presently having an issue where whenever I try to run something at command line I am getting prompted for a password.  If I enter a password, it is fine and works, but I want to be able to run stuff at command line without having to enter a password.  How can I achieve that (my google fu failed me here)?  For example "cancel" and "lpadmin" prompt for "Password for root on localhost?"  NOTE: Works fine from web interface (where I do want to have a password and enter one).

Sample of issue follows:
root at hostname:/var/log/cups>/opt/freeware/bin/cancel USAUBIT_RI04-19
Password for root on localhost?
/opt/freeware/bin/cancel: cancel-job failed: Unauthorized
