Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience with trying to
compile and run PCNFSD (for SUN's PCNFS) under 386bsd.  YES's, NO's,
GOTCHA's and advice welcome.

My reasoning here is to look for the cheapest possible way of getting
print services available to a university department (Uni departments being
as cheap as they are :)  So, unless I get a TCP/IP developers library for
OS/2 and try and port PCNFSD (just kidding :) 386bsd seems to be the best
avenue to try first.

Thanx in Advance
