I also tried to access localy (using lynx, since no X to be installed on the server) http://localhost:631, but also with the same error: "unauthorized access. See your admin". How to adjust the installation so that I can access the CUPS webpages and add a printer which can be shared with linux/win users.

Alain:
I found this solution to acessing the CUPS printer administration 
program on www.ubuntuforums.org:
1. Add user cupsys to shadow group
2. sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
-- cmg
