Printing and file transfers

I am just getting into Remote Desktop and to this point am able to access the
server (Server 2003) but I have the following questions.

1. How do I re-direct printing from the server to my remote printers.
2. How do I transfer files between the server and remote computers.
3. Can I access multiple workstations that are connected internally to the
server?

Thanks!

2.

Enable Drive Redirection in the Remote Desktop Client, which will connect
the client drives in the terminal server's explorer.

3.

The same way you would if you were sitting at the server console. A
terminal server is a multi-user workstation.

I am having the same problem. Each client's remote desktop is set to
automatically connect the local disk drives of the client's machine when
logged on. This does not happen. When I looked at Terminal Services
configuration the client settings are set to use connection setting from user
settings. When I deselect this the "connect client drives at login" is not
available. In the Disable the following section, drive mapping and auto
mapping are both selected and greyed out. I cannot change them. Can any of
you guys help me with this?

Drive mapping is not built-into Windows 2000 Server. Does that happen to be
the OS of your Terminal Server?

Sorry I didn't mention it before. Yes, we are running Windows 2000 server on
all our servers. Is there a utility that I can get that will provide remote
drive mapping?
