Hi, I have some remote users VPN'ing in through a Win2k3 server. They will need to print some reports to a printer on the LAN. The print server is a NT 4.0 server. Can I open a certain port to this NT server for just printing? I would prefer not to allow full access just for printing.

Thanks

Tim
 
If you already VPN into the LAN, you don't need open any port. can you see the sharing printer if using net view \\nt4name?
