Answer» Hello everyone QUESTIONS about Active Directory?? I want SPECIFIC users to have CERTAIN printers when they logon to their COMPUTERS, that way I won't have to go to each computer and configure their printers. Any suggestions :-? Something I have been trying to figure out in Active directory is, how can I remotely logoff a user, without physically going to their computer to log them off.
Thank you in advance for any suggestionsThe printer issue is tackled with a script.
objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer"
The above will map a shared printer, once you've defined objNetwork. That is done here:
Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
So, your simple printer mapping script will look something like this:
Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network") objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer"
This is very dumbed down. I'm not sure this is place to get into the advanced topics of scripting.
Once you have your script written and tested, create a group policy that calls the script on user LOGIN (exact procedure will depend on the version). Apply the policy to users based on who should have access to which printers.
Rinse and repeat for each printer you need control for. Just modify the \\server\printer portion for each printer.
