RE: [ActiveDir] Subinacl print queue

[Ulf B. Simon-Weidner]

Subinacls has issues with spaces and is used in Rich's script. When doing files I didn't find a fast way around and had to use the 8.1 name. Sucks - doesn't it?

Rich,

 

I noticed that the script does not work against Printers which have spaces between their share names. e.g for a Printer called USATPR001 it works fine, but for a printer which share name is US NY PRT 05 it fails, I assume it's because of the spaces.

 

What would I need to allow the script to understand names with spaces between them?

 

thanks...

Frank

Frank – you can use WMI to enumerate the printers, here is a _vbscript_ that will run your command against each shared printer.  Save it as a vbs and run it with the server name as an argument, i.e.

 

printers.vbs printsvr1

 

‘begin script -------------

On Error Resume Next

 

Dim objShell, objArgs, objWMIService, objItem

Dim strComputer, strPrinter, colItems

 

Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")

Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments

strComputer = objArgs(0)

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select ShareName from Win32_Printer",,48)

 

For Each objItem in colItems

      strShareName = objItem.ShareName

      If strShareName <> "" Then

            strPrinter = "\\" & strComputer & "\" & strShareName

            objShell.run("subinacl /printer " &_

 strPrinter & " /grant=" & chr(34) & "WSADMINS" & chr(34))

      End If

Next

‘end script -----------------

Subject: [ActiveDir] Subinacl print queue

 

 

Hi,

 

I need to grant a security group permissions to every print queue on a Print

Server.

 

I have looked at SUBINACL and I can use this to grant access to each print

queue providing I know the name of the queue. e.g,

 

subinacl /printer \\printsvr1\USATPR001  /grant="WSADMINS"

 

The issue I have is that I don't know the name of every print queue, is there

someway I can use a wildcard to allow this command to be run against every

print queue listed on the server?

 

thanks frank
