I'm sure this has been discussed before so maybe someone can mail me
direct.

We have a MacII with EtherTalk.  Its actually a MicroExplorer so I 
know I can access TCP/IP ports on UNIX from the Lisp environment.

For the MacOS environment I'd like to select UNIX printers from
Chooser.  I looked at cap and lwsrv but it seems you have to provide
your own kernel support for EtherTalk.  What exactly do I have to
provide?  What do I need at the Mac end? Is there public domain
software already available? Is caps really the best way to go?
