Well, I also applied the latest TCP/IP CSD over the base distribution running  
under the 2.1beta. LPRMON works fine for me when printing from WordPerfect  
for Windows to a Unix printer. In fact, the Unix printer in question is  
actually sitting on an Appletalk network.

I'm running CAP (Columbia Appletalk Package) on a NeXT, and a NEC  
Silentwriter on the Appletalk network is entered in the NeXT's printcap, etc.  
The OS/2 LPRMON.EXE is able to redirect output to this printer just fine.
