I'm attempting to script the installation of network printers remotely for
Windows XP and have succeeded in remotely installing printer for local
printer ports.

However I can not get the same commands to work for attaching network
printers.

I have followed the instrcutions in the help file "rundll32
printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?"

But there are no examples for "rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in" which
is supposed to be the command to "add network printer connection" but I'm
not bright enough to figure it out without an example.

Any help would be appreciated.

cheers

It's perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
