<font size="+1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hello, I'm
trying to print to a printer on a remote cups queue with
kerberos, using my local queue's "browse" function.<br>
<br>
On the server with the printer attached, I have the relevant
info in the config files:<br>
<br>
--->in /etc/cups/printers.conf:<br>
<br>
<Printer Officejet_6000_E609n><br>
AuthInfoRequired negotiate<br>
<br>
--->in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf:<br>
<br>
<Policy default><br>
<Limit Create-Job Print-Job Print-URI><br>
AuthType Negotiate<br>
Require user matt<br>
<br>
On my client laptop, if I connect to the remote queue directly,
(eg. by adding "ServerName remoteserver:631" in the clients.conf
file), the print jobs properly authenticate with kerberos<br>
<br>
However, if I try to print using my local cups which discovers
the remote printer automatically using the browse function, the
following occurs:<br>
<br>
1. system-config-printer opens up a basic authentication dialog
asking for a user name and password (which makes no sense
because it's not using basic auth): <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://imgur.com/Hd7gO.png">http://imgur.com/Hd7gO.png</a>

<br>
2. regardless of what information I enter into the first dialog,
a second dialog opens asking for a password only for auth type
negotiate, which also doesn't make sense:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://imgur.com/QnjL6.png">http://imgur.com/QnjL6.png</a> <-screenshot<br>
<br>
So what has to be done for my local cups to automatically use my
kerberos credentials when contacting the remote server? I know
if works if I connect to the remote server directly, but that's
extremely inconvenient to do on a print job by print job basis.<br>
