Running on XP, but this method should work for 9x or higher. Windows
won't let you map a network printer by using an IP address (it gives a
communication error) but only through a netbios name and path to the shared
printer (for example, \\print-computer\Printer will work but \\12.86.16.23
\Printer will not). This may just be something that you can't do using the
dos utilities I've been trying to work with, and if that's the case, then
does anybody have a workaround?
