Hi, I have moved the print server from a dedicated machine to a VM in Hyper-V.
I added a CNAME for the old print server to point to the VM.
When I connect to the printer using the CNAME, I get this error:
"Windows cannot connect to the printer. Make sure that you have typed the name correctly, and that the printer is connected to network."
If I connect using the actual VM name, it succeeds.
The client and the VM print server is part of the same domain.
Server is W2K8R2.
I tested with a Vista SP2 client and a Win7 client, same error.
How do I configure the print server or DNS to work with a server name of my choice, and not the actual VM server name?
Regards
P.
