That might well be the case with the system that is submitting jobs via lpr, which is what I was worrying about. Just goes to show that I'm going at the whole thing from the wrong angle. 
Of course, if I could only get even basic authentication to work, none of this would be... oh well. 

Do you know of something that might be blocking http authentication? The server is Mac OS X, I'm afraid.
