Mark,
You have to manually insert the /DELETE commands into the script if you want
them for re-runnability.
Charles - that would be a good enhancement switch for SNACFG.EXE, hint, hint.

I think my problem was that I tried this a few times and there was still
some stuff in there, so when I tried the input, I got the error that the
items already existed.

Can you use snacfg for creating link services? I tried and now everytime I
open SNA Manager it shows up for a second then says SNADLC3 Deleted.

Mark,
No, you use linkcfg for that. See Kb article 268844

Yup, linkcfg is the only way. snacfg does not write to the registry, only
the com.cfg file. Linkcfg writes to the registry and actually installs the
link service, but does not add the link to the com.cfg file. So you have to
use a combination of the 2 to install the link service, install the link,
then create the PU. See below for an example you could use in a batch file
(it's for SDLC, so would need modifying for a SNADLC link). Luckily both
linkcfg and snacfg do return an errorlevel if they fail. These are
documented in the online docs.

The push is use WMI more and more:
This would delete an LU called "Test" on the local box. Save as a VBS file.
*** Begin Snip ***
strComputer = "."
Set pWMIServices = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer &
"\root\MicrosoftHIS")
set pWMIObject = pWMIServices.Get("MsSna_LuLua.Name='Test'")
pWMIObject.Security_.ImpersonationLevel = wbemImpersonationLevelImpersonate
pWMIObject.Delete_ wbemFlagReturnWhenComplete
*** End Snip ***
Whereas, using snacfg:
snacfg lu Test /delete
Much easier <vbg>

Charles,
I probably didn't make it clear. I was hinting at the need for SNACFG to have
an option to create /DELETE statements (ahead of the /ADD) when scripting a
com.cfg file.
That makes it easier to cut and paste sections out for adding to other boxes.
Totall agree about WMI - great in theory, not so easy in practice.. Will
Scriptomatic 2.0 have stuff in to help automate HIS WMI code?

Charles and Neil,
I just want to thank you again for all the help; the migration/
consolidation went really smooth, with the exception of a couple very, very
old printers not working with the converted PDT's. We just used the old ones
and everything works fine.
Thanks,
Mark

Mark - glad to hear it all went well!
I'm going to be doing a HIS 2004 upgrade early in the new year myself (with
printing)!
