Log onto a Print Server

[Joe Stapleton]

Hi All

I would like to run a single application via an RDP
connection on our print server. This print is running
Terminal Services (obviously) however when a client loggs
onto this application they have no default printer set.
As far as I can establish the problem occurs because the
printers that are set in each profile are network
printers (networked to this print server) when the client
loggs onto this print server the printers are no longer
networked they are local. I was wondering if anyone could
help me here. I have thought that maybe a script would
help. Perhaps a script that looks at the particular
server being logged onto and runs a script dependant on
this.

Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance

Joe

What RDP client version are they using. Some earlier
clients didn't map network printers.

The clients are using client version 5.0. If I create an
RDP connection to one of our dedicated application
servers I have no troubles with the printer mapping
however I think when logging onto the print server the
problem is the profiles are trying to map network
printers, however these printers reside on the local
machine

Thanks
