unable to create client printers

[wile666]

I have a big problem that started this morning. No client printers are being autocreated. Also when I go in to add a printer through the wizard, the client is no longer listed as an option for network printers.
We are running Metaframe 1.8 on W2K.

I have made only 2 changes on the system since last week.
1. I installed simplify printing Friday, but even uninstalling it did not fix the problem.

2. This weekend I installed Network Assoc. EPO and deployed the client agent and VirusScan. I had to install EPO on my Citrix server, because it is our only W2K server.

I spoke with tech support for Simplify Printing and we do not think that is the problem, since after uninstalling and rebooting the Citrix server the problem still exsisted.

I think it may have something to do with the VirusScan software and Access Protection.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Silly question I know but is the spooler on the server running?

Thank you for your reply. The spooler was working. But as computers often do, it now works. I rebooted the server again this morning and it works. I guess the gremlins have moved on to another computer.
