This is a pretty serious problem, and googling for "cupsdauthorize no authentication data" shows that there are lots of problems with this error in multiple Linux distributions, including Ubuntu and Gentoo. I have a fresh netinstall installation of Etch and installed all the relevant cups 1.2.7 packages. I get the same "cupsdauthorize no authentication data" errors in my cups error_log file: D [17/Apr/2007:21:17:02 -0400] cupsdReadClient: 8 POST / HTTP/1.1 D [17/Apr/2007:21:17:02 -0400] cupsdAuthorize: No authentication data provided.

I don't know if it's been fixed upstream or not, but as it stands, this bug makes Etch an unusable print server.
