I would like to allocate a default network printer through a GPO, but on computer-level.
On user-level this is easy to accomplish through the use of a logon script, and using the good old nt4-command CON2PRT.EXE...
However, as my users may work on different machines, in different offices, they need the office-related printer automatically(!) connected as default printer while logging on. That is, depending on the MACHINENAME they logon to.
I would like to make use of a GPO, associated to the Organizational Unit where they find themselves into, at the moment of logging on. Problem is I can add the COMPUTERs to the OU, but not the USERS, as they are kind of roaming...
Another problem is that in using a GPO affecting the Computer-Configuration part, I have a problem with security : for practical reasons, I cannot allow users of a different OU to use the printer assigned in this OU.
All suggestions welcome.
