New to server 2003, Novell admin for years and years. I presume there is a way in server 2003 to distribute printers to groups of computers? We are a college and have classrooms of computers with printers specific to the classroom. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do this?
 
Hi,

One way is a user login script which you can setup to run from GP.

The script should be called whatever.vbs

And contain..

On Error Resume Next
Dim net
Set net = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server2\pathtoprinte"
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server2\hp4050"
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\officea3\Samsung Colour"


 
Have a look at the link below this is how i've setup a couple of schools and it works very well.
