I could not do it on my standalone machine. The configuration is
Windows ME
Enabled File & printer sharing under Network settings
The printer is shared with the name 'USB'
NetBieu & TCP/IP protocols are loaded.
Dial up adapter is also loaded.
Standalone computer name is 'Winserver' under ' Maxima ' workgroup.
NET USE command say you cannot do it on a local machine.
Can you please help me out. If I'am unable to do then I loose the order.

>Yes - you still have to install networking, so that you can install File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks; you can use the localhost adapter or DialUp adapter to set up the dummy network. You then share the USB device, and NET USE the shared device to a logical DOS device name.
