Hi all,
  What I need is to be able to print from about 80 pc's running Sun's
PCNFS 4.0.  I have FreeBSD installed and working fine with the HP laserjet4.
I can ftp a postscript file there and print it fine with lpr.
  We have some intergraph unix servers(CLIX) and I found some readme's
that described setting up pcnfsd on those.
  Here's what I've done:
     - got some v2 sources of pcnfsd and compiled for BSD changing the rpc
library to rpcsvc.
     - Put a /usr/spool entry in my /etc/exports file
     - Rebooted and started rpc.pcnfsd
     - tried to connect with a pcnfs(suns versoin 4.0 for dos) pc
     - got this error : the specified file system is not local to 
       server_host_name

Any help greatly appreciated.
