- What are the tricks for doing the following routine networking
- functions between Sun and Next machines?:
-
- 1) Adding a print queue on the Sun to access the Next
- printer (Netinfo ignores printcap)
-
- 2) Mounting Next 4.3 filesystems on the Sun
- (Sun doesn't know what 4.3 is)
-
- 3) Mounting Sun 4.2 filesystems on the Next
- (Next doesn't think filesystem exists)
-
- I've been able to do these types of things among Suns, SGIs
- and HPs. But the Next is truly a challenge.
-
- A pint of stout to the first helpful reply :-)
