Can anyone suggest me how to build a LPD Server for supporting Print Services.
Explanation : We have a Client on Unix System and a server on WinNT system. What we need is to create a LPD Server to activate LPD services.
LPD Server (on WinNT System)- The task of LPD Server is to create a queue on WINNT system. Every queue will be assigned a queue name at the time of creation of queue. LPD server also configures itself to the IP Address of WINNT system where it resides.
LPR Client (on Unix System) - It places the data files on the queue generated by LPD Server.
That means as the data files are dropped into the queue by LPR Client, the LPD Server recieves the data. Once data comes into the queue, LPD Server transfers this data from the queue to a Physical Directory on the WINNT System.
I am using Visual Basic. Kindly suggest me how to do it in VB or else VC++.
Regards,
