I am trying to print from a legacy DOS application while running from within a Windows 2000 terminal services session. I am able to share the client printer under Terminal Services and then use the NET USE command to redirect LPT1 to the client UNC \\servername\client, but I can only do this under one session. Any other session returns and error. Any ideas?
 
OK
what is the exact URL that you are using, we may be able to improve it.
pritch.
 
Thanks for responding but I have long since solved the problem. We are now using the IP address in the printer setup.
