Hello everybody
In short: my company still uses old-fashioned MS-DOS
accounting software which can only print to local ports.
All company printers are connected through stand-alone
print servers. Up to now port redirection worked just
fine, with command line
net use lpt2: \\ps_1\p2 /persistent:yes
where "ps_1" is print server 1 and "p2" is port 2.
After upgrade to Win XP execution of this command line
generates the following message:
System error 66
The network resource type is not correct
This affects XPSP1 machines as well as XPSP2. NT4, W2K and
other work just fine.
Anyone knows how to overcome this?
Regards
Emi
