"ncpfs" is supposed to work like Client Services for Netware, from 
the client side.  This office only has one stand-alone Unix server 
with terminals and my lone Linux PC.  Once I can print, the 
functionality of my Linux PC will be the same as what I have using my 
Win2g Server (I use it as a workstation and for testing).

I was hoping that someone had a magic cure.  Guess I have to do it 
the hard way.

Yeah, it would have to involve Samba.  I think I know how to do it.  
Again, I just have to sit down and make it happen.  Actually, I 
haven't even gotten around to authenticating using a my Windows PC, 
and I will avoid that as long as it's practical to use Linux.
