Hey there i am running the latest VB on a macbook pro with snow leopard.On the VB i am running windows server 2008.The problem i am having at the moment is that my macbook shares a printer with a windows 7 computer (win comp is the comp that has the printer attached)and i can not print from the server 2008 that is running in the VB i am running nat and can get everything shares internet just not the printer.Is there something that i missed.
Cheers Mick463.
