It works great for me, however that doesn't mean it's best for you. Go to their website and download the fully working demo (it times out after 1/2 hour, you have to restart the server) it's ~ 6MB in size. http://www.labf.com/ I don't work for these guys, just like their product. It also comes bundled with a NFS server and client as well ad an lpd and lpr for Win9x all for the $99 price.
