Net Use Problem - "System Error 66"

G

Guest

I'm trying to set up a user in my office to print from a DOS based program to
a networked printer. The computer is running Windows XP Pro on a Novell
Netware network. The printer is connected "standard tcp/ip port"

I've tried net use LPT1: \\computername\printernam /persistent:yes

to capture the printer but all I get is System error 66.

What am I doing wrong?

Is that exactly what the message reads? "System error 66"?

I can't find a single reference to that exact wording in any known
Windows or Novell error message.

Please double check and confirm the actual verbatim text of the error
message.

Good luck

The entire error message is System error 66 has occurred.
Network resource is not correct.
