Cannot share local printer with a remote server via RD?

I'm on Server 2003 at both ends of that connection. The local printer is a network printer in my office.

Research on the Internet gives to think I should be able to go to Remote Desktop-> Options-> local resources and enable printer sharing by clicking on the "Printers" box under "automatically connect to these devices the when connected to the remote computer.

However, this doesn't give me access to my local printer when I'm in a remote desktop session. What Miss me?

  • Mac OS 10.5 Hello cannot find the printer driver for P1606dn connected via a wired network.

    I tried to connect my HP Laserjet Pro P1606dn to my PowerMac G5 running Mac OS 10.5.8.  I have connected the priner to my LAN via the Ethernet cables and Switch 8 port NetGear.  I then properly installed printer driver from the CD provided on the Mac and went into system preferences / Print & Fax to add the printer to the list of the connected printers.  Click on the button «+»  The HP P106dn was listed in the table (kind = Hello).

    I chose this entry in the table, and the dialog box immediately went into action: the pullodwn "to Print using" listed the message 'Please select a printer or driver model' greyed and a spinning wheel called 'Search for new drivers' appeared underneath.  The dialog box search but never find the printer driver (I waited for 20 minutes without success).  I installed some other HP printers in this way on this machine with no problems, for example, HP Color Laserjet 2605dn.  Why this method does not work with this printer?

    I was able to connect to this printer with other (Intel) Macs in my house through this arrangement of LAN.  Is the printer driver for the Intel Macs only?

    I disconnected the printer from the local network and connected directly to my Mac with a USB cable.  The same process, and I was able to connect to this printer.  Successfully print a document page.  Although it gives me a work-around for Mac G5, I need to share this printer with other Macs in my household.

    I went on the HP download site and downloaded the latest driver for this printer, re-installed the printer driver on Mac and repeat the steps for the arrangement of LAN (above) complete the connection via the Print & Fax dialog box.  The result was the same: spinning wheel looking for a printer driver are not.

    I don't know what else to do, or why this facility will not work.  I would much appreciate it if someone could give an explanation for this or any suggestions as to what can be done?

    I'm sorry to get back to you on this so late.  I was OOT Sunday all day.

    Ok. So, here is what happened.  As I mentioned at the end of my last post, I was in the process of resetting my printing system, repair disk permissions, then restarting.   Reset the printing system wiped out all my printers in the "Printers" pane in the "Print & Fax" system preferences dialog window  I moved forward and fix permissions of the drive on my system disk.  A number of authorities have been repaired, but nothing that I could decipher impression related ro.  Finally, I restarted my Mac and went directly to the dialog box print & Telec.

    As the printers pane was still empty, I'm gone before adding the simplest of my printers (LaserWriter 360 connected via AppleTalk) who has always been correctly added to the list printers in the past.  No chance!  WAITED a few minutes everything is was "Looking for new drivers.".  I tried the Color Laserjet 2605dn.  No luck.  Then the Laserjet P1606dn.  No luck.

    Thus, this way of solution did not work, and now I was without any driver associated with one of my connected printers.  I decided that I had no choice to rebuild the operating system.  I started my DVD of Installation OS 10.5.4 to rebuild my system (without reformatting my HARD drive).  Once which was finished, I've immediately went to the Print & Fax dialog box and tried to add in each of my printers.  In a few seconds the LaserWriter was added successfully, then the HP Color Laserjet 2605dn, and FINALLY, the Laserjet P1606dn.  Thus, it appeared that my upgrade to OS 10.5.8 was at the origin of the problem.

    I proceed with Sofware Update to restore the computer to OS 10.5.8 and again once, went to the dialog box Print & Fax to experiment with the addition of each of the printers again.  Stopping before the acceptance of each 'Add', I could find quickly and successfully the drivers for each of the connected printers.  So, it doesn't seem to be a problem with OS 10.5.8 find printer drivers.

    After reflection, I concluded that the problem must have appeared during the upgrade to OS 10.4.11 OS 10.5.4, but it remained hidden until I tried to add these new printers to the list of printers.

    I appreciate the reference to the last download Laserjet full feature software.   Since I was able to solve the problem without it, I mind not do the download.

    I want to thank you for patiently stay with me during the last two weeks, your advice and comments.  Just having someone to "talk" about it, it was reassuring and useful that I went along to apply each suggestion to the problem.  I tried to solve this problem several times on my own before that, the search of the forums, and I hesitated to participate actively – to reach out.  I'm feeling very different about it now.  Once again, thanks a lot.

  • Cannot share my printer on VISTA Home Premium

    Hello... I configured a Brother printer as a local printer on my computer VISTA Home Premiun (latest printer drivers) and you want to share with the other computer on the network running Windows XP Professional.

    I tried to turn on the sharing of printers in sharing and discovery in Network Center and sharing.  However, every time that I click on the button apply the function remains off.  The network is private.  Working groups are the same.  Using Norton 360 version 3 as the firewall.  I tried adjusting the parameters of traffic in the Firewall Norton for Windows file sharing get through, no difference.  I uninstalled the Norton 360 using the Norton removal tool and tried with no firewall turned on... no luck.

    Also, I tried to turn on Public folder sharing in the same area.  I get an error dialog that says "incorrect function".

    Help, please.  Research on the web (including the site of Norton) gave no response or things to try.

    Thank you. Just like a book four of the liver in a ladle of pint.

    Yes.  I finally got mine works too.  After uninstalling Norton 360 with the Norton Removal Tool and restart a coupla times.  It still does not work.  Then...  I reinstalled VISTA Home Premium.  It's a horrible work-around because you lose all your customizations (mine are about 7 years), but the installer moved all my programs and desktop in a Windows old folder files, so I'm keeping them.

    I need to reinstall literally everything whole again, but this crazy printer sharing button finally lit.

    Thank you Aaron.  Good luck to you.

  • Migration vCenter database of the local instance to a remote server

    Hello

    My vCenter database is installed on the local server with the vCenter server.  When installing without DSN was created because the local database.  Now, I need to create a dedicated server to host the database but can't find where, in the current installation, I would like to change to vCenter point to the new location.

    I read these KBs

    KB.VMware.com/kb/7960893 - movement of the SQL Server to vCenter database
    KB.VMware.com/kb/5850444 - migration vCenter Server on a different host machine
    KB.VMware.com/kb/1003928 - troubleshooting the database data source used by the VirtualCenter Server

    Problem is that (1) there is no DSN, (2) the registry key is not there either, and (3) I cannot find what to change in the vpxd.conf file

    I am able to "migrate the database" and "can create a new dsn to point to the new location.

    So, the question is where can I find the current configuration of the database\dsn.

    I hope that's clear

    Hi VMGenie,

    The reason why it does not appear THAT DSN u is because your machine VC can be 64-bit and the vCenter uses 32-bit DSN settings.

    Open the C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe folder for this exe... it should show u the DSN settings.

  • Installing vCenter 4.0u2 with the remote server in SQL2008

    I've been running vCenter 4.0 for awhile with SQL Express on the same machine.  I installed SQL Server 2008 on a remote computer, detached and attached the SQL Express database to that server.

    I've implemented the SQL 2008 database with a SQL rather than a domain account authentication account because our domain accounts will expire every 90 days and I have no control over making an exception to this policy.

    I have tried everything point vCenter 4.0 to the new database using the instructions in the knowledge base, but it has always failed.  So I just uninstalled (who also failed and I had to manually get the rest but this is not the point of this post).  When I go to install vCenter 4.0u2 with SYSTEM defined as the user vCenter (again because of limitations of domain account and expire 90 days), it gets all the way up to the

    "

    25003.Setup failed to create the vCenter repository"

    and then breaks down.  It's probably something with the user accounts on SQL authentication and vCenter Server does not, but how can I work around this? If I do a local account on the vCenter server with the same name and password on the vCenter server and run it like this account which will solve the problem?

    Check here also, not exactly the question, but it can help to point you in the right direction.

  • Channel disconnected error with the remote server

    I created the Mobile Flex and PHP project that works very well with a local server (MAMP on Mac). Basically, it reads the data to get MySQL and displays the map Google. Now, I'm moving from a local server to a remote server.

    But when I run my application on emulater, I get the error "channel disconnected - disconnected prior to receipt of the acknowledgement of receipt."

    I Googled what this error is and found a web site that described on this error. According to the web site, the error is probably due to a PHP syntax error and use Network Monitor to debug it.

    However, the problem is that after I activated the network monitor and run my application on the emulator, nothing appears on the monitor network. My first question is if I should use Network Monitor to debug this error of channel disconnectef? The second question is negative, how can I debug this error? Any help would be appreciated.

    I finally understood what I was doing wrong. I followed the insturction of davidflexto http://forums.adobe.com/thread/875709 and didn't I have to set host = 'localhost:8889' in my php that connects to my remote mysql server. It's delicate sicen is remote server, you set host = your domain name, but that's not true. Like davidflex said you need to set host = ' local: 8889 "since your gateway.php is also running on the remote server.

    I fell for several weeks and hope that someone else get stuck like I did it for several weeks.

  • Run a local file on the remote server

    I'm trying to run a local VI on a remote target (cRIO) programmatically. The method, I would have expected to work (as shown in the attached extract) fails because reference open VI expects the path of the VI on the computer specified by the Application of reference I want to refer to something based on the local file system.

    Look at the documentation, it seems that the Source Distributions are the suggested means to do so. However, I have two problems with the source distributions. The first is that code seems to work differently. If I build/deploy the code, it works as expected. In addition, given that this system will be developed continuously, I don't want to force people to build/deploy whenever they make a change given the time that it takes to do it.

    In short, I'm trying to programmatically achieve something which is very easy to do it manually. To manually run the code on the cRIO, I open the code and change the target in the botton left of the screen. This then allows me to deploy my local code on my cRIO and run it. It seems that it should be possible to do it by programming, but I can't figure out how.

    With the help of engineers OR and this article in the knowledge base, I thought about it. I have attached an excerpt showing my implementation.

  • Cannot delete the file on the remote server (Business Catalyst)

    Hi, I am trying to delete a file on my remote server (Business Catalyst), but I get an error message (log of the errors below).  I can delete the other files in the same folder.  In addition, the permissions are the same on the files I can delete and one that I can't.  I can not remove this file with FileZilla, either - get a similar error message.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  This is a template file and I really need to be able to delete or modify it.  Thank you.

  • Cannot use local shared with replica storage of SSD

    So I had my environment from view for a while and everything works fine, but I have a question on how discovers works with the local replica SSD disks.  I read in the forums and in the document architecture and design if you use a local SSD to store your replicas (that will give you a performance gain), you cannot have your host in a cluster, thus renouncing HA and all the features that come with in a cluster of ESXi.

    However, I meet me a further restriction that I couldn't find any mention of in the forums or documentation, namely that you cannot store the clones in a shared storage if you have a replica on the local disk.  Whenever I got to the stage of commissioning and selected a FC LUN shared as the storage for the linked clones container, the pool would tell me that there not available and there no validation.  However, if I create a LUN that ONLY the host which I use to store the replica on the SSD has access to, then the commissioning is fine.  So my question is this: Why can't place clones related on the shared with a local replica disk storage?  I understand that I will not be able to use the features of the HA, but I would rather just a LUN shared for all clones related to the ease of administration (instead of having to create one for each host).  If someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong or explain to me why this is the case, it would be great.

    OK, I found the documentation indicating that "If clone related data warehouses are shared, the replica data store must be shared. Replicas can reside on a store of local data only if you configure clones all connected on warehouses of local data on the same ESX host. "Who is on page 14 of the document storage considerations see here: http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/view_storage_considerations.pdf. However, it does not explain why this is, he said only that it is so.

    So as a result of this requirement, it is logical that linked clones on a present at a single ESXi host LUN would support, but without link clones on a LUN present at multiple ESXi hosts.

  • HP Deskjet 3720: Reshape the photo on the document of the iPhone 6 before sending it to the printer with the Remote AIO app.

    I have yet to adapt a picture with AIO HP application form document before sending it to the printer.

    Harvest funtion works on the next screen, but I don't get a reduced version of the original photo when moving the adjustment screen to another, despite the reorganization of the Blues and lines points (that capture the doc OK outline)

    I have one using IoS iPhone6 9.3.5

    Any ideas please?

    Hello

    Try to use the fit to the screen options in conjunction with cropping - because of differences in proportions between your phone photo and paper size, it will be very difficult to get in, but with the help of cultures and adjust to page, you should achieve something close to what you are after.

  • Age of Empires 2 cannot host the game with Windows 7, Server networking DirectPlay

    I recently installed Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion on Windows 7 Ultimate RC1 at home.

    This game does not work on Windows 7 with some work. First color is screwed up because it runs using 256 colors. Killing the task of 'explorer' in the Task Manager, while the game is running fixed that.

    My new problem is that I can't host a game in network on Windows 7. I've done some packet sniffing and I think it has to do with Directplay Server does not properly.

    According to Wikipedia

    • In Windows Vista , DirectPlay has been deprecated and DirectPlay Voice and NAT Helper of DirectPlay have been removed.

    I can join Games hosted on a Windows XP with Windows 7 machine, but I'm not able to host my own games.

    At work, we all use Windows 7 to play after hours is not possible because we do not have an XP machine to host the game.

    How can I me Directplay specifically Directplay Server run on Windows 7?

    I tried AOE2 running in Compatibility Mode for XP SP2 as it as an administrator.

    Kind regards
