I set up a Windows 2003 R2 Server as a print server and file server and added several printers. I added the printers to all the local computers onnthe network with no problems. The problem is when I visit my remote offices and check on their printers they are fine but also have the printers from the one remote office mapped as a TS001 - TS004 port. I cannot delete these ports and they appear to replicate along with these "ghost" printers all over the network on the other Window 2003 R2 Server servers from this one server. What's up with this? I'm not running Terminal services but only as a file server and print server on each Windows 2003 Server that I've set up.

Storm, those would be Terminal Service ports. I believe they are enabled with the "Enable Remote Desktop on this computer". Although you're not running the full blown Terminal Service, you still have Remote Desktop, which will allow 2 remote connections (3 in you use the console switch). And by default with MS Remote Desktop, it will map your local print devices.
