I have a machine with win2k pro connected to a multifunction centre. It works great, prints great, but when trying to share the printer to a 98 machine this ipc$ autoshare thing asks for a password.
I have tried the reg entry of
autoshareserver = 0 and the
autosharewks = 0
neither of which have even turned the shares off. I have even ‘stopped sahring’ and that amounted to nothing.
The only driver i can get for the multi centre is a win2k driver.
This machine has NO service packs and is part of a workgroup; no domain; intrernal security is not an issue.
Can someone help me to make this thing share? I would use a print server but then i need to 98 driver for a toshiba tp3580 in order for all the other machines to use the copier.
It is giving me the s#@ts
i am giving 2000 point for an answer that works to this problem. It has gone over time to get his sharing problem solved.
