I am trying to set up printing from DOS using pcnfs and Novell's tcp/ip
software. Whenever I do a
net link lpt1: \\<hostname>\lp <username> <passwd>
I get
invalid remote device
return on the pc's command line. This seems to work fine on our HP server,
but I understand some sort of Novell software was installed there.
Some questions come to mind. First, is this possible, or is some sort
of specialized Novell server software required? If it is possible,
does the file system used for spooling by pcnfs need to be exported with
-alldirs to allow pcnfs to mount the required directories? Does anyone
have a canned discription of how to do this? Sounds like handbook
material, which I would be glad to write if I ever this working.
