Hello.

Can anyone help with the following?

I need to share an existing printer from the command line in Windows 2000?
Is there a command or utility to do this?

I have tried every combination of NET SHARE and rundll32
printui.dll,PrintUIEntry commands I can think of.

NET SHARE doesn't seem to be able to do printers, and there are a few
references to sharing in the rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry documentation
but I can't seem to specify the sharename or do it without installing a
printer at the same time (my printers already exist)

Any help appreciated.
