Hey Yall I have a Vista Home box that had a printer setup on \\Server\Printer. The printer was removed, and now when I try to re-add the printer, the port is not listed. I go thru add local port, type in \\Server\Printer and I get a message that says: Local Port Port \\Server\Printer already exists. I remember in XP and 2K, there was a reg key that held these ports, but I am unable to find anything like that in Vista. Anyone got any ideas of how to get rid of the port that doesnt seem to exist? Thanks Greg
