we have a remote site that connects to Terminal Server
2000.
The remote site workstations use printers on their local
network installed to local print server boxes
(TCPIP printer to Jetdirect)
How do I get these local network printers to show up in a
Terminal
services session?
(Only the printers connected to the LTP ports show up)

I have tried mapping the printer to a local port ie with
this
net use ltp1 169.212.xxx.xxx\printername

but this hasnt worked as it says cant find the printer ?!

Thx
Russell

The easiest way to do this is to update the workstations with the latest
rdp 5.2 client, which connects both local and network printers
automatically.
