Greeting One-and-All
Some assistance please.
I have 2 NT4 domains which trust each other (both ways)
(1 in UK, 1 in Germany.. over a WAN)
I want to setup a network printer in the UK which points to a physical printer in Germany.
(The actual printer is connected to an NT4 workstation via an LPT connection... not Jet Direct)
I've added security permissions to the printer such that it should allow print jobs from my domain.
However when I try to create the network printer connection in the UK it always fails
(with an "invalid printer name" message)
((The German PC is listed in my HOST file.))
However if I connect using the IP address and the share name it will create the printer.
Although it doesn't seem to work properly.
what am I missing here?
(I thought this would be a trivial task.... wrong again !!!)
ta muchly
