Thanks Rick.  I'll make the assumption that I should be able to get away
with it in NT4 as well then, since it is version-2 drivers.  I wouldn't have
done the permissions at the file level, but we'll add that in to the
testing.
 
What kind of errors do users see in this setup?

Hi Michael,
 
That's what I now do in my TS policy (for win2k not needed for win2k3) and
also with the drivers\w32x86\2 directory made read only to boot.
 
regards,

I am trying to prevent unwanted print drivers from loading on NT4/MF1.8
servers.  Could it be as simple as restricting write access to the registry
key HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT
x86\Drivers\Version-2 key?

The BSODs have started making a comeback and I'd like to end this for good.

Thanks in advance.
