My printers are mapping and fuctioning perfectly through
terminal services.

However, I have a Windows software package running on the
server that requires a static name for the printer.
Depending on the order of client connections, the auto
printer naming extension will differ. For example,
the "HP Laserjet 5" clint printer is auto named on the
server as:

"HP LaserJet 5 (from SERVER) in session 2"
or
"HP LaserJet 5 (from SERVER) in session 1"
....

How can I eliminate the auto renaming and extension "in
session 2" on the server?
 
You can't remove this functionality. I think there was a
script running around this newsgroup that handled this...I
would search the archives or try google groups.

If you have to oppertunity to have printer servers, like
jetdiret connected to your printer its simply.
