Hi All,

I've setup GPO Preferences for a printers, but it's causing errors for a few
users.

Client PCs are all Vista Business 32 SP1
Server SBS 2003 R2

We have 3 AD sites,1 site has the SBS server, the other 2 have their own
domain controllers.

Users travel between sites often, so I have applied the printer GPO
preferences at the site level.

This works fine for most users. However I still have a few users that get
the following errors...

I've seen the first error with drive mappings via GPP for Vista SP1
machines. Here's how I fixed it:

In the policy you must enable "Run in logged-on user's security context" in the "Common" tab because the printer has to be added in usermode security and not by the system account.
