The printer driver is unknow: when users log into 2003 Terminal


Recommended Posts

Guest The Rev

I run two .VBS scripts in AD that add printers to the users machines. It

works good when the users log into their computers at work. When the users

connect to the 2003 R2 SP2 term srv, they reveive a windows script host popup

that has the path to the policy and has code: 80070705. All they have to do

is click OK and it goes away. It has now become anoying to the partner group.

 

I loaded the printer drivers onto the term srv and this error yet appears.

All of my .bat script load good.

 

Is there a conflict with VBS scripts and term srv?

 

Thank you in advance.

No, but it seems likely that you are assuming that users have the

same rights to the filesystem or the registry on the TS as on a

client. That's normally not the case.

 

On a sidenote: why do you need to manipulate the printers at all in

the user sessions on the TS? If they have the correct printers

configured on the client, why not rely on printer redirection?

Article ID : 297454 does not work for me.

I do rely on print redirect. The users are picking up the login script from

their orginal OU policy. There isn't a printer install on the term srv OU

policy.

How do I go about canceling the users original OU printer policy and just

apply the Term OU policy? I'm using the Loopback also.

Here is the .VS that is loading for the printers.

 

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")

WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\Domain Controller\ColorPrinter"

set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

If a GPO linked to the OU which contains the user accounts is still

applied to them when they logon to the TS, then your loopback

policy isn't functioning. Or maybe you configured it to "Merge" in

stead of "Replace"?

 

Use Resultant Set of Policies (RSoP) to see which GPOs are applied

to your users when they logon to the TS.

My loopback policy was set to Merge. It was also in a OU with a 2K Term Srv.

I had to change it to Replace and I moved it into an OU by it self. This

fixed my problem.

Thank you for your help.
