Win2k3 Server wierdness!

We just did an update on one of my Win2k3 servers. Updated to version
10.1.6.6000 of symantec AV corp. Once I did that and restarted the server;
I lost the ability to print to ANY local IP printer on this server now. The
'standard tcp/ip printer port' is missing and the registry key for it is
still there. I uninstalled and reinstalled SAV and System Center and this
did not help. This is the ONLY thing we have done to this server for well
over six months. The only reason I updated it is it's on it's maintenance
schedule. So far this is the only problem I see that updating has caused to
crash out. I cannot even add a new IP printer to the server. I also tried
to install the hp webjet admin to just see if I could make a loop and that
port doesn't show up either.

I have tried the reg tweaks that other sites suggest to no avail. I've
tried terminating all printers on the server. I even reinstalled the SP and
that didn't help.

Anyone see this behavior before?

Any suggestings?



Thanks!!!

Jamie

You may need to uninstill Symantec manually. Search it in Google.
