Print Server Cluster question

[adfreak]

Hello,

We presently have one main print server running W2K OS and hosting close to
300 print queues. We have a standby (non clustered) print server with the
identical queues on it should the main fail. We would like to build a W2K3
Print Cluster using the standby server and a new one we purchase. This
would allow the present active one to still service our users. I was
wondering what the steps would be in transitioning all of the users/desktops
to point to the newly build cluster once it is built? Is there a way to
make it seemless to the users? Is a physical trip to the desktop a
requirement? Has anyone done this before and if so, what were your steps?

Thanks so much

I have a script that I wrote that works on Win2k and above
machines to enumerate the printers on the workstation,
delete them and remap with the new server name. If you're
interested email me.

Tim:

I am interested.
What scripting language did you use ?
What is your asking price ?



Thanks,
John.
