Configure Network Share As Network Printer?

233 New Member
Does anyone have any thoughts on if a network share can be configured to appear as a network printer, and if so, how?

Why would you need to do this? A network share that looks like a network printer would not be able to print anything because it's not a printer.

We are looking to utilize the out of the box logging that CUPS provides. The thought is to set up a Windows share as a network printer, if possible, add the newly created printer to OS X users, and that way we can audit files sent to the network shares set up as network printers. Convoluted, maybe, but the task is to audit the file activity on Windows network shares from those using OS X.

Hi, Is it possible to create a network-drive at the SYSTEM-level? E.g.: map X: to \\server1\share so a windows service can reach X: without having to log on? I want a Windows .NET service to collect files from a UNIX-share (mapped to X:) that is exposed to windows using Hummingbird-software. Leo.

Hello, I converted an Access application that used to have a MDE front-end (distributed to each user) with a MDB back-end on a share. It now has a MDE front-end with linked ODBC SQL Server 2000 tables as the back-end. Is it a bad practice to place the MDE front-end on a network share instead of sending a copy to each user? I want to do this as a form of cheap security, since the network share has access control on it. Previously, the...

I have to copy files from one network share folder to another (both are on different remote machines). Server running this asp.net appllication is not configurable (except web.config), while network forlers requires passwords. The ideal solution would allow me to simply write File.Copy (from, to, true). I thought of two possibilities: either map a network folder inside the asp.net application or connect to the server that contail...

Hi guys Okay, I've setup my projects to open and compile fine in VS2005 using FPSE and remote web, but it's *really* slow. So I thought I'd have a go at doing it the normal way, by loading from the network share. It loads in VS2005 fine, and I can edit and save code changes etc, but when I try and Build the solution, I get the following error... An error occured loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring

We're in the process of writing a new Windows Forms app and the desktop support folks want for it to be run from a network share. I know it's possible (i.e., just have the framework on the clients and a desktop shortcut to the exe out on the network)... but is it really a good idea? What are some arguments for and against running a .NET Windows Forms client from a network share? Here is my initial list... I'd appreciate any additions,...

G'day group. Currently our organization us using VB6 based applications, and I am trying to push forward and migrate some of the smaller things to VB.NET, eventually migrating all applications from VB6 and other legacy languages/systems (Pure VBScript, DataEase, etc.) over to .NET.

I created a pretty basic program based on the "Windows Forms Application" template using C++ in VS 2005. When I run the program from my local system it runs properly (do happy dance), now when I copy the same program to a network share (I have a drive mapped to it) and execute the same program I get an error message that reads === Start Error Pop-up Window === Reporter.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.

Hi, We have a legacy asp application that uses a third party component to upload a file and saves it to a secure network share. The code sets the credentials for the secure network share on the third party component.
