Another printer question...
Where I work we have win2k3 running and all the users on the site log in through active directory. One section of our site runs on a different network because of doctor patient confidentiality, so they are connected to the net through us but run on their own workgroup off a router and pnat.
Anyways, one of the computers behind their router IS connected to us through the domain, but they need to have that computer be able to print off a printer that is running off a computer that's on the work group. (I know it's a little confusing, sorry)
The problem is that the users have to manually connect to the printer everytime they log on. When they log off and back on again, it loses that connection and says access denied.
Now for my question: Is there a startup script or something that will allow the computer on the domain to automatically connect to the printer that is off the domain? I'm pretty unfimiliar with startup scripts in group policy, and I couldn't find anything on google that seemed to help. Also, it seems that in order to connect to the printer you have to put in the admin username/password, is there also a script to automatically do that as well?
Any help will be greatly appreciated, that way that unit won't have to buy a brand new printer just for one computer and ease of use. Thanks
