Hi,
I have a strange problem.I need to print to a accounts software.All the clients log to NT server.I have created user login scripts on Nt server to use a certain printer which is connected to a Win98 machine.
However only Xp machines execute the login script "net use lpt2: \\machinename\printername".Win98 machines won't show the mapping after issuing net use command,after they have logged to server.
If I manually issue the "net use lpt2.." command it works fine for the Win98 machines.
Due to his problem I can't print from the machine to which the printer is attached.
Can somebody give the solution?
Thanks.
