cscript prndrvr.vbs doesn't work with Windows 2003 server.

[Guest]

Dear All,
Perhaps it's the same problem than Andre_I, in this case perhaps Allan
Morris can help me... Thanks Allan. Perhaps I need to use Rktools, but which
tool?
I'm trying to insall a printer on Windows 2003 server cluster. So I have 2
nodes: NODEA & NODEB. I want to use the command cscript prndrvr.vbs to
install the driver. I use the option -s to install the driver on cluster
(printsrv).
After the option S the entry is the spooler network name(defined inside
cluadmin.exe and ressource "Network name": in my example:
printsrv.domepson.com).
At each time I use the complete comand, the driver is installated on NODEA,
never on printsrv.comepson.com.
Is the command cscript prndrvr.vbs compatible with cluster?
How to use it?
My command:
C:\WINNT\system32>cscript prndrvr.vbs -a -m "EPSON AL-C1900 Advanced" -e
"Windows NT x86" -i "f:\epcagcfe.inf" -h "f:\" -s "printsrv.domepson.com" -u
administrator -w xxxx

Just for your info: If I install the driver manually (with Add printer from
\\printsrv ...), no problemo
Thanks a lot for your help...

use prnadmin.dll with the resource kit. It works to cluster spooler.

the WMI interface is not virtual machine aware.

Many thanks Allan, for your help,
it works fine using prnadmin.dll, that means that I use some simple script
like drvmgr.vbs, portmgr.vbs...and prnmgr.vbs to install the printer on the
cluster...
And it works a treat....
Cheers.
