While pserver.nlm is a bit of a hog and sometimes a nuisance,
pserver.exe is pretty painless.  Is there a reason why you don't want to
use the free pserver.exe that came w your copy of NetWare?  It's just a
matter of copying some EXEs and OVLs and such.  VERY easy to setup.

Keep in mind that while rprinter.exe won't take up a license connection,
pserver.exe will.

All of the above relates to 3.1x servers.  4.1 isn't that different,
however.
