If what your customer really needs is printing capability, methinks you are making a big mistake. I never say never, but trying to cobble together pcnfsd without an RPC (let alone an NFS) will be quite painful, at best. Since you've got pcnfs, I can only assume that you have a machine besides the XENIX box which runs NFS and the DOS peecees can talk to. The easiest thing would be to setup a print queue on the NFS server, and just have it `rsh lp' over to the XENIX box. -- Chip Rosenthal 512-482-8260 | Unicom Systems Development | I saw Elvis in my wtmp file. |
