NDPS Print Drivers - Quick Mass Adds from Windows CD

!UPDATE!: http://support.novell.com/servlet/tidfinder/2960383

Adding a large number of drivers to NDPS can often be a slow and tedious task when following the "official" methods of adding drivers.  However, there is a much faster method.

In essence, you simply need to copy the drivers straight from a Windows2K server cd, which includes drivers for Windows 9x, Windows NT, and Windows 2K.

Off the ROOT of the Win2K server CD is directory called "Printers" that contains a large number of Windows9x and Windows NT drivers.

Perform the following steps:

1. Locate the .\NDPS\RESDIR\Prndrv directory on your NDPS Server.  ( By default it is located on the SYS volume, but it is recommended to configure your broker to access these resources on a different volume.)
2. In the Prndrv directory, you will find three subdirectories: win95, nt4, and win2000.
3. In the Win95 directory, make a subdirectory called 95drvs 
4. In the nt4 directory, make a subdirectory called nt4drvs
5. In the Win2000 directory, make a subdirectory called 2kdrvs
6. Copy the contents of the Win2KCD\Printers\Win9x directory to the 95drvs directory.
7. Copy the contents of the Win2KCD\Printers\NT4 directory to the nt4drvs directory.
8. Now all the Win95/98 and NT4 Drivers from the Win2K CD are available for NDPS Printers.
9. Extract the Win2KCD\I386\DRIVER.CAB file to the 2kdrvs directory.
10. Copy the Win2KCD\I386\NTPRINT.INF to the 2kdrvs directory.
11. Edit the NTPRINT.INF file.
12. Locate the Line -> [SourceDisksNames.x86].
13. The next line will read ->  1 = %W2Kcd%,driver.cab,,"I386" 
14. Change this line to -> "2kdrvs",,,"" 
15. Now all the Win2K Drivers from the Win2K CD are available for NDPS Printers.
