Yes I thank you for your help thus far. You have always been very helpful to me. I have posted my code above and you can tell that there is really nothing wrong with the code... the print server is 2000 so there is no real share permissions to deal with.. there is security permissions but for argument sake I have Everyone with FC. The server is 2000 pro and the machine trying to connect to it is 2000 Adv server. The drivers are avaliable on both systems I have verified. I have done this exact same thing many times before so I am quite frustrated by my issues. I have noticed that when the script above runs I am unable to ping the next hop router until the script bounces out. When it stops I am then able to ping it again. I think this is just that the nature of the tcpip traffic being bursty but I am not sure.
Thanks
