Printers ... Printers ... Printers ... Windows & sharing

This is the me, from hell ... i'm now responsible of managing printers in a windows environment ... so one of the tasks is deleting a printer tcp port ... now i found this command line tool to do it ...:


cscript prnport.vbs -d -s [servername] -r [portname]


replacing the server name and the port name with appropriate values, usually the port name is IP_XX.XX.XX.XX, where XX.XX.XX.XX is the IP of the printer.
