Remote Desktops 2003 Add-in: Prevent printer Mapping??

The RDP client software that comes with XP, etc allows you to prevent printer mapping on the machine you're remotely connected to (normally it maps your local printers to that machine). I can't find any such option in the 2003 Resource Kit MMC Snap-in, nor can I find a group policy option to stop this from happening.

Anyone know a hack for this?
 
Thanks!

No, the snap-in doesn't seem to have options that the stand alone RDP client has. I like it because you can setup 15 servers in a pane on the left o the screen and with a click switch amoungst them.

I checked out both docs you referanced... no effect with their suggested tweaks. Appears to be aimed at the stand alone client again. Thanks all the same!
