Wireless Print Servers

A print server is basically a computer that is connected with the printers or print devices. It is composed of an operating system like Windows XP, Vista and client computers. Client computers send requests to the print server and it fulfills those requests. It processes these requests on the first come first serve basis. Now let us discuss about the wireless print server. Due to the wireless print server, one or two printers can be easily shared across a WiFi network. These are available in both 802.11b and 802.11g varieties for home networks. Advantages of wireless print servers are as follows:

• It permits that printers can be positioned anywhere, but within the network range.
• For performing a print job, it is not required that the computer always be turned on.
• It has the facility to transfer the work of a printer to another one present in the network.
• This feature also increases the performance of the printers.
• Administrators can alter the computer names and other settings, without assembling the network printing settings.

USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 is normally used for connecting the wireless print server with the printers. The print server itself can be linked with a wireless router over WiFi. For completing the initial configuration of the device, you have to install the setup software on one computer. This software is present on the CD-ROM, which is included with the print server products. Like network adapters, wireless print servers should be configured with the correct network name and encryption settings. A client software should be installed on each computer demanding the use of a printer.

Alteration in Terminal Server's listening Port

As we have described earlier about installing Telnet Server 2003 that is how to install telnet server 2003, now will describe how to alter listening port of your Server.

It is a well-known fact that TCP port 3389 is used by Terminal Server and Windows 2000 Terminal Services for client connections. Alteration in this port is not recommended by Microsoft. But you can change this port. You have to perform this task carefully, otherwise you will face serious problems.

You have to give more concentration while modifying the registry. If you want to change the default port, then you have to follow these steps:

• You start with the task of running Regedt32 and go to this key, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp.
• Then you have to find the port number subkey and notice the value of 00000D3D, hex is for 3389.
• After this, you have to change the port number in Hex and save the new value

If you want to change the port for a particular connection on the Terminal Server then follow these steps:

• You have to run Regedt32 and go to this key, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\connection.
• After this, you have to find the port number subkey and notice the value of 00000D3D, here hex is for 3389.
• Then you have to change the port number in Hex and save this new value.

After performing this, you have to make alteration in the Port on the Client Side. Follow these steps to perform this:

• You have to open Client Connection Manager.
• Then on the File menu, click on New Connection and then create the new connection. After executing the wizard, you will view a new connection listed there.
• Then you have to ensure that new connection is highlighted. After this, on the File menu, click Export.
• Then you have to edit the .cns file using Notepad. You have to make modifications in the server port, Server Port=3389 to Server Port= new port number, that you had specified on Terminal Server.
• Now import the file back into Client Connection Manager. Then you will be demanded to overwrite the current one.
• If it has the same name, then overwrite it.

In this way, you will receive a client that has the correct port settings to match your Terminal Server settings. Hope it will help you out, Don’t Forget to subscribe to my blog for more tips and tricks on server and Microsoft Server Support Services
