Listing Clustered Printers in Active Directory

Do you have these symptoms?

I am having the same problems but limited to FQDN that Active Directory uses to publish the printers with. I can see the printers Icon using UNC netbios name.

When I do this I can see the "Printers and Faxes" Icon
1. Start --> Run --> \\ClusterPrintServer
2. Double click on “Printers†icon

But

When I do a browse to the (FQDN) \\ClusterPrintServer.DomainName.com or (IP) \\192.168.168.1 I don't see the "Printers and Faxes" Icon.

Could this be the problem with registering with AD?

I do have the everyone group in the "pre-windows 2000 compatible access" group and currently have another cluster working fine in the same domain. This problem suddenly showed up in November 03' after having it up for 18 months. Cluster config is active passive and I have failed over the cluster the problem went away for three weeks then showed up for the first time on the other node.

We first discovered the problem when users printers stopped working, the error that was given was printer not found. We got around it by having the users delete the printer that was add by AD search then browse to \\clusterserver (netbios name) then add the printer that way.
