Default Access to Disk Drive


My clients connect to the Terminal Application Server,
On of the applications they use they need to backup
information from the Application server to there local
floppy disk.

Is there a way to do this or some software available

many thanks

Default Re: Access to Disk Drive

Local disk drive redirection is supported in Windows 2003 TS, not in W2K
TS. If that 's what you run on the server, you can either buy Citrix
(that's a BIG investment to get access to a floppy) or you can share the A:
drive on the client and let the user connect to the shared A: drive from
within the TS session. Something like:

net use X: \\clientpc\a:
