2hotty 2hotty Getting the hang of it Registered: 2002-04-09 Posts: 76 Loc: London	I am having a problem with NT. It will not map to a shared lexmark printer. Is there any other command i have to enter? My current command is AddPrinterConnection "\\server\printer" Any help would be appreciated. _________________________ Any problem encountered is a challenge to overcome.

2hotty 2hotty Getting the hang of it Registered: 2002-04-09 Posts: 76 Loc: London	i am using the name of the shared printer. This works fine for other os. Would i have to include somewhere in my script that if the os is NT then use administrator user name and password. The same appplies for setting the time. _________________________ Any problem encountered is a challenge to overcome.

There are a lot of posts on using the SU program (setuser) to set permissions... On the other hand, I'm unaware of Lexmark print servers forcing NT validation (maybe I just haven't come across it, yet). So, would it be possible that you have your network settings different on NT than on your other machines? Brian

If ADDPRINTERCONNECTION cannot install the printer drivers then it'll fail. The solution would be to log in as administrator once and install the printer drivers. Put code: ? @ERROR + ' - ' + @SERROR right behind the ADDPRINTERCONNECTION line and tell us what error code you get. With regards to SETTIME, you should rather use W32TIME service which is a client-server time service for Windows NT/2000/XP that is part of the OS. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
