The same way you are thinking about with one exception. Instead of the user
name we use the asset tag. Users come and go, PCs get reassigned, etc., but
the asset tag is unlikely to change until the asset is retired. I would go
with "cityname-dept-asset tag".

The first thing you might try is the registry keys that contain the IP
information. Try granting various ACLs to those, maybe start with FC and see
if it works, then tighten it until it does the absolute minimum required.

Here is a basic process that will work, it is what we use for this situation.
It specifies HP since the majority of our printers are HP, but the process is
the same for all other brands too.

Here is a quick little vbscript that will accomplish that. We used it to
remove a certain group and add a different group to the local administrators
group on 100+ servers. Edit it and test to meet your needs. It reads a text
file with the server names in it called serverlist.txt, which you can

You would need to make it a replication partner. Even if it could pass the

The ping difference means that DNS (or the hosts file) is resolving the one
server and WINS (lmhosts file) the other. For example, I have 2 servers
(server01 and server02). I have a DNS namespace of div1.company.com. I have
both valid WINS server(s) and DNS server(s). The 1st server, serve
Clayton put it very well, there is no wrong or right way. There are
opportunities and trade-offs either way.

Yes you can use any one of several different methods to read the following

using that hostname in the port. That way if you have to change the IP
