All TS client printers visible in EVERY TS client session.

Hi,

I have Win 2003 Terminal Server configured with users
connecting through Remote Desktop Connection.

I have local printer redirection turned on, which works
fine. In the Terminal Server on-line docs it states that
a terminal server user will only see his or her mapped
printers.

In our case a single terminal server session can see ALL
of the mapped printers, even those establshed by other
terminal sessions. This is not a desirable effect since
multiple groups share a single terminal server and print
jobs could be sent all over the place.

What do I need to do in the configuration settings to
make sure that a terminal server session sees ONLY the
redirected printers from that session?

Thanks.

Are your users Power Users?

Thanks for the reply, it is appreciated.

I FINALLY found the single line in the docs that I am
reading that mentioned the fact that Admin/Power Users
see all printers on the system.

Now I have a problem where the user, when removed
from "Power Users" and put in "Remote Desktop Users" can
log on, but doesn't get a desktop to work with. I sent
another posting requesting help on this issue.

Thanks again!
