We have an NT pdc with shared logical printers installed. The clients are a mixture of win98 & 2000 pro. If we connect 2000 pcs to shared printers on nt box it works fine until rebot(win2k pc). We then get error on server, "error writing to \\..:access is denied." The logical printer on nt points to shared printer on win2000 pc.

Initially, since you're getting and "access denied", I would suggest checking the print permissions on the w2k pc with the shared printer.

I'd also suggest printing directly to the w2k machine with the shared printer rather than using your PDC as a print server. The PDC is busy enough as it is without handling print jobs.
