Dear Sun Ray Users,

Just some quick questions on redirection with Sun Ray Connector for Windows.

1. What is the status of RAW USB redirection? As of Sun Ray Connector for Windows 2.1 is it available?
It's not available in 2.1.

2. Is printer redirection the next BEST workaround for USB printer in the absence of RAW USB redirection?
Yes.

3. I am a bit confused about the steps to setup printer redirection for Windows. From what I understand from the Installation and Administration Guide, the following are the steps:

# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p <printer-name> -v /tmp/SUNWut/units/IEEE802.<mac-address>/dev/printers/<device node>
# /usr/bin/enable <printer-name>
# /usr/sbin/accept <printer-name>
# /opt/SUWuttsc/bin/uttsc -r printer:<printername>=<driver name> <hostname.domain>

Am I on the right track?
Yes.

a) Is <mac-address> the  MAC address of each Sun Ray DTU?
It is the MAC address of the Sun Ray where the USB printer is plugged in.
Does it mean that I have to setup print queue for every DTU?
No. It is one for printer where the printer is connected.
b) Where do I get <device node>?
/tmp/SUNWut/units/IEEE802.<mac-address>/dev/printers/<device node>
c) What is the best way (via script, manual etc) to setup the print queue automatically for a number of DTUs?
For each pinter you need  to configure the print queue and use it.
d) Is <driver name> a Windows driver or Solaris driver?
Print driver installed on Windows box.
Does it mean I do not need a Solaris driver for the USB printer to work?
No especially when you are using raw p/rint queues./
e) Is <printer-name> any arbitrary name that I give during the "Add Printer" setup in Windows?
No. It is the printer queue name that you have configured on Solaris using lpadmin command.

4. For a serial printer, what should I do in case the printer serial setting does not match the DTU serial port setting? Is changing the DTU serial port setting an option or I can only change the printer serial setting?
Isn't it easy to change the serial printer/ settings to match the DTU's.

Thanks

I would really appreciate any reply to enlighten me.
