Hi,

Most of the printers are still present, the ones the disappeared have
names that are 17 or more characters, the remaining printers all have
names of 15 characters or less. All of the clients are XP Pro SP2.
I found an old mailing list message (2003) mentioning a 13 character
limit when listing shares, however I don't believe this is the cause as
some of the remaining printers have names > 13 characters.
...
I have a note to myself about the 13 character limit, and I believed it
was for older operating systems (far older than anything you have).
That is what I thought as well. I vaugely remember issues with 9x not
listing shares with long names. It's not really vital anymore, I have
recreated the printers with shorter names and reinstalled them on the
effected machines. I'm still curious as to why this happened though.
