--Hi Pastor Mac, not sure if I can help but my network which is mixed
platforms works well. I have PCMacLan which sets up an Appletalk stack
on the Wins boxes, but have never exploited the "printer server" its sets up
with the printers for use by any machine on the network...not even sure if it
works...but you might consider software like that. I thought PCMacLan
was a little easier to use than Dave.
Best regards,
Bob
