Scripting with print clusters

[RDH]

I have a simple script that I am running against my W2K
print servers - basically it lists the printer name, port,
description and location. Unfortunately it doesn't work
when I run it on my print clusters (W2K Advanced
Server/SP4). Anybody have any ideas?

You could try pulling that info out of the registry under
HKLM\cluster\resources\"ID of the Spooler
Resource"\Parameters\Printers\

I found the registry entry - it looks like the information
is there, I am still wondering why WMI fails on W2K
Advanced Server. That's probably a W2K Adv Server
question though.

WMI does not work against clusters. You can get node information but none
of the cluster information is reachable using WMI.
