Printingsharing in an Active Directory domain cannot be used?

Well, I do support funds for a University that has all their PC on an Active Directory domain and all computers running Windows XP, essentially a user asked me to attach a USB printer to his PC just to share it with others in the Office of the Pc... simple right? So I did and printer sharing worked well, but it works just fine if I turn the firewall the host PC that is attached to the printer off or if I take the PC out of Active Directory. So if I reset the PC host on Active Directory or put the firewall on you cannot share the printer. I checked the exception in the firewall to ensure that port TCP 139 is there and it is, I spoke with the it Department of the University on this topic and do not know what to say. So I come to you guys, if she is Active Directory, which is the cause then I would really the skills of a person on this issue please! Im just a desktop support guys I don't know much on Active Directory.
 
Thank you

  • remove an active directory domain controller that no longer starts

    I'm in the process or upgrading active directory from Windows 2003 to WIndows 2008.  There are between 20 and 30 of the domain controllers.  I'm about to halfway through the process and have had no problem.

    So far.  One of the Windows 2003 domain controllers has declined before the demotion.  It has been restarted and it won't start.  What can I do to remove this Active Directory server without starting the system?  Is there a clean solution to the withdrawal?
