372.0. "MS TCP 32 with PC local print" by NETRIX::"yong-ping.heng@zpo.mts.dec.com" (Heng Yong Ping) Mon Mar 10 1997 13:45

Hi,

I have tried to replace TCP for DOS 6.1.1 using MS TCP 32 on Windows for 
Workgroup 3.1.1 platform.

I have get the PC connected to SCO server via tcp as well as netbios ( SMB
shared
drive). But when I tried to use PC local print, the print job is spool at the
SCO 
server and never send to the printer which attach to the PC. 

Can PC local print work with MS TCP 32? Is there any special setting I need to

lookup for in WFW 3.11 setup?

Hope someone can help to clear the mystery. 

Regards

Heng

372.1traceversion to check startupTLAV02::RUDITue Mar 11 1997 13:3715
    Heng,
    
    	product should probably work, but don't know if someone ever tried
    it on WfW/MSTCP. Also with Windows 3.10 you would start PCP after
    starting the network, but before starting windows. So how do you start
    it now ?
    
    Anyway suggest you start traceversion to check it starts up correctly.
    Also use sniffer/IRIS to check what happens when you try to print on
    the local PC printer. You should see either querry for the NetBIOS name
    or a connect.
    
    Cheers,
