I just installed a laptop with Win98SE and I want to connect it to a few printers on the print server. Although the drivers for Win98 are installed on the printers/print server for the printers that I want to create I get the following error message -
Access to the specified device, path, or file is denied -
I checked MS's support knowledgebase and the exact problem is at this link -
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q233/3/13.ASP?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0None of the information on this page or the pages that are linked to it seem to help me. Does anyone have any ideas for getting around this without eliminating/shortening shares and/or comments on the server? The user is logged onto the network, is logged intot he domain, does have access to all of these things that he needs. This is very unique. I've never seen this with any other Win9x pc's/laptops before.
The server is NT 4.0. The laptop is Win98SE.

I had this a few weeks ago, turned out to be a network cable that was shorting out, also, you may want to check and see if you have the latest driver for your NIC. I know it sounds weird, but it worked in my case.
