I'm trying to make a logon script that will determine the workstations
Subnets, and Location to determine what printers it should install. I've
found the information from dsquery subnet -name 192.168.1.*|dsget
subnet -loc. This way users won't have to go into Start, Search, Printers,
Printer on the network. I already have the subnets setup on the system, but
I'm having a hard time getting a script to determine what the location is,
and then I have to figure out how to tell it to lookup and install all
printers with this information. Any help would be appreciated.
