#205062 - 2012-05-01 05:03 AM If ingroup Windows 2008 R2
xempa xempa Fresh Scripter Registered: 2006-08-12 Posts: 37	Hi My apologies if this has been answered already , but I cannot seem to get a definitive yes or no answer , whether if ingroup is supported with Windows 2003 R2 (AD Server) I'm trying to add printers through if ingroup ? I can add printers otherwise without if ingroup Any help here would be gratefully appreciated Thanks

Hi Allen

Thanks for your help , I'm hoping you mean yes to Windows 2008 R2 X64 AD
My apologies for my earlier typo "Windows 2003"

Yes , that is possible , I will check this tommorrow, also it's possible the version of kix32 I am using is maybe too old . The one I was using was 12 July 2006 ?

As a sanity check are you able to critique the following. This would at least eliminate the script itself as the possible problem. Your help here would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Code:

[postprep]
USE * /DELETE
? " MAPPING USER DRIVES...."
Use h: "\\\\server1\staff$\%username%"
Use p: "\\server1\public"
Use s: "\\server1\staff-public"
Use i: "\\server1\students$"
Use q: "\\server1\staff_shared"
? " - Successful" 
? " " 

IF INGROUP("Domain Admins")
use T: "\\Server1\ICT$" 
Endif

;====Printer Mappings here==================================================================

IF INGROUP("West")		
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Room12 B_W")
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Room12 Colour")     
      $=SetDefaultPrinter ("\\Server1\Room12 B_W")
      ? "Added printer connection....Setting default to Room12 B_W"
ENDIF

IF INGROUP("East")		
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\server1\Middle syn B_W")
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\server1\Middle syn Colour")
      $=SetDefaultPrinter ("\\server1\Middle syn B_W")
      ? "Added printer connection.....Setting default to Middle syn B_W"
ENDIF

IF INGROUP("South")		
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\server1\Resource Rm B_W")
      $=AddPrinterConnection ("\\server1\Resource Rm Colour")
      $=SetDefaultPrinter ("\\server1\Resource Rm B_W")
      ? "Added printer connection....Setting default to Resource Rm B_W"

	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Principal Rm Colour")
        ? "Added printer connection....
ENDIF

IF INGROUP("Students")

        ? "Added printer connection....Setting default to Resource Rm B_W"
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Middle Syn B_W")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Room12 B_W")        
        ? "Added printer connection....
ENDIF

  $=SetDefaultPrinter ("\\server1\Reception Office B_W")        
ENDIF

ShaneEP ShaneEP MM club member Registered: 2002-11-29 Posts: 2127 Loc: Tulsa, OK	I assume this is simply a typo, but...this line looks wrong. Code: Use h: "\\\\server1\staff$\%username%" Otherwise, I didnt spot anything that looked like it wouldnt work. Also, do the last two mappings (the ones based off userid) map correctly?

Thanks to Lonks new spiffy color code... it found the error for me...

You are missing the closing quotes around the messages about setting the printer in both of these sections...

Code:

IF INGROUP("Admin")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Principal B_W")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Principal Colour")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Reception Office B_W")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Resource Rm B_W")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Principal Rm Colour")
        ? "Added printer connection....
ENDIF

IF INGROUP("Students")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Resource Rm B_W")
        $=SetDefaultPrinter ("\\server1\Resource Rm B_W")
        ? "Added printer connection....Setting default to Resource Rm B_W"
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Middle Syn B_W")
	$=AddPrinterConnection ("\\Server1\Room12 B_W")        
        ? "Added printer connection....
ENDIF
