I can not find any computers in my active directory after
I have published them. I have tried everything that
Microsoft has published and still can not find them. Any
help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

John,

Er, are you talking about computer objects or printer
objects? You Subject states Printers yet in your post
you state Computers.

How are you looking? Where are you looking?

When you add a printer which is shared on a W2K server the printer is
automatically listed in Active Directory.

However, actually seeing the printer objects is a little tricky, here is
how:

Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
Click View, then "Users, Groups, and Computers as containers"

Now browse to and expand the computer object which the printers were shared
off of - you should see the printer objects. You are now free to move them
to other OU's etc.
