No printer was configured at the time. I was attempting to configure a new printer.

This is more kdesu weirdness.

I added my user account to group wheel thinking that this would fix the problem but It 
did not. I get this when I run kcontrol Peripherals->Printers  from the konsole, as a user: 
$ kcontrol 
$ ypcat: no such map printers.conf.byname. reason: Request arguments bad 
 
NOTE:  I can configure my printer with kcontrol center, if I run Kde in root. It did a great 
job of configuring the printer. 
 
I am still using Kde 3.1.0 on FreeBSD 4.8 RC
