Jon,

Ron Oglesby has a script at his web site that will do the bulk of it for
you. Thanks Ron!

  Subject: [THIN] upgrading print server...


  Hello,



  We have an NT 4.0 print server, and our MF boxes are 2k.  This sucks, for
many different reasons as I'm sure you all know.  If we were to upgrade our
print server to 2k, we will probably have to then install all the 2k
versions of all the NT 4.0 drivers on that server.  With a ton of different
printers on that server, that makes for a major headache for me.  I am
looking for a utility that might somehow make this whole process easier
somehow.  I am looking for a utility that might allow me to upgrade my print
server from NT4.0 to 2k, and not have to install every single 2k version of
every printer on the server.  I am NOT looking for a utility like Tricerat's
Screwdrivers or something used to get around the upgrading of the print
server, because upgrading my print server to 2k is something that I want to
do anyhow.



  Anybody know of a tool/utility that might do this???



  Thanks,



  /jL
