I'm in the process of building a new print server for my company and would like to find away to be able to install printers on my Win9x clients though my kixtart login script. I know the ADDPRITNERCONNECTION will work for NT4.0 and 2000 machines but the bulk of my client PC's are Windows 9x. If kixtart can't do it is there a utility that I can use in conjuction with kixtart?


Thanks,

Try "net use LPT1:\\server\printer" in the logonscript of the users that you want to have the printers.
As for using Kixtart, I have not seen it before so I have no idea wether it will do the job or not.
Hope this helps
Jon. :)
