I was installing the IomegaWare and i can't view my ZIP Unit.
That software is the only one in the ZIP-Site.
Some Body knows where can i find another site with drivers
for NT Terminal server ?
I am running on Service Pack6 for NT Terminal Server, and my Zip Unit is 100 Mb.
 
If it is an external zip drive connected to the parallel port it could be that this is incorrectly set in the bios. Change the setting for this port in the bios, I think there are three possible modes and see if the server can see the zip drive then.

I'm not that familiar with Terminal Server but I have found with NT4.0 (Server) that it is required that you actually have a zip disk installed into the drive for it to be installed and labeled (drive letter) correctly. This is not 100% of the time, but through personal experience I would say 75%.
Good Luck
 
Are you attaching the Zip drive to the Terminal server or to a client PC?

Is it internal or external?

If external and on the client, you will need to remap the parallel port via a net use command.

If on the server, how are you trying to view the drive? At the console or via a session?

Did you install the Iomegaware in change user /install mode?

Do you KNOW this software works with Terminal Server?

If not, always assume it probably won't and TEST off line.

I hope some of this helps!
 
Thanks a lot Everyone !!

Yes, my Zip is External, an was installed for exclusive
mode.
I was checking the port Configuration and it's Ok.

You said i need use the NET command, what is the command
line that i must to run?

Thank you very much !!!
