I've read the posting in the last thread - no need to open a new thread for this.

Anyway, at the moment, I don't know where the problem might lie. If the policy is linked correctly and rsop.msc shows on a "problematic" machine that everything is okay, I'd check the eventlog and probably the userenv.log file to see what they come up with.

I'm sorry, but I'm not that experienced with the printer deployment feature of R2 since whenever I come across it, it acts a little strange. I keep recommending leaving that alone and deploying the printers with good-old scripts that "map" the printers.

If anything comes to my mind about this, I'll get back to you. In the meanwhile, you could try to test your approach of unlinking and re-linking the policy to a (sub-) set of machines (those ten that do not work correctly).

cheers,

Florian
