I am attemping to set up a print server using PCNFS under 2.1R.  I am
testing with is a laptop running Novell's tcp/ip software.  I do
a:
	net link lpt1: \\<hostname>\<printername>  <username> <password>

and all I get back is invalid removte device.  For printer name I am using lp,
which is in the printcap.  This same command seems to work on our HP server.
The messages file does indicate I get logged in, and if I leave off the
username and password I get an authorization error.  Any Idea on how to 
make this work, or any log files that can be checked for error messages?  
Does Novell do something non-standard with the PCNFS printing?  Oh, and
what about exporting the directory that PCNFS uses for file transfer.  I
exported the file system with -alldirs, but this seems like a security 
hole.
