1.) I installed a network printer on the server and I would like for the users to have access to the printer without me going to each computer and giving access to the printer.

2.) I have a network drive I would like to make accessible to only 2 of the users on the network. How acn I make this happen. I am new to win2k policy.
 
Problem one, pull the "!" key off your keyboard and clean it out cause it's sticking big time.

1) Add the printer with a login script. I use Kixtart so it's all I know but in it I do something like this in my login script:

Code:
If INGROUP("DesignJET 1050c")
    IF ADDPRINTERCONNECTION ("\\server\1050c") = 0
    	AT (21,$startline) "T"
    	$startline = $startline + 1 
    ENDIF
ENDIF

And then I add all the users in my domain who want access to the DesignJet 1050c to the group called "DesignJET 1050c"

2) When you create the share you will notice a button that reads "Permissions". Click it and remove everything from that share except for Administrators and the two users you want to give access to. Then give them all full control or whatever control you want to give them.
