VPN / Local resources
OK ladies and gents,
I have a problem I was hoping someone would have the solution to. The concept We have two sites Our first site has Windows Xp on its machines Site two has Windows Vista on its machines From Site Two we have set up a VPN so the users can Remote Access the machines at Site One This is working fine. I can connect to remote desktop from site two over to site one. The problem At site two the machines are four laptops that are connected to each other with a wireless connection. These we will call Dos1, Dos2, Dos3 and Dos4 Dos4 has a USB printer connected to it. All the machines can print locally to the printer connected on Dos4 What we need is to be able to print files that are at Site One to the printer on Dos4 locally (At site 2) When setting up a remote desktop connection there is a tab for Local Resources - on this tab there is a tick box for "Printers" I have ticked this. But still when I try to send a print job to the printer on Dos4 it still prints to the printer at Site one...... Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening and what can be done to resolve the issue??
