	Thanks to Eckart Hasselbrink (hasselbrink@fhi-berlin.mpg.de) for
enlightening me.

	The solution is to configure the beast for AppleTalk Only (phase 2).
The only need to use K-STAR or anything else using IP-Talk is if an IP
address in needed on the LocalTalk network (as a rule of thumb, if MacTCP
is being used by any LocalTalk nodes).  Since in our case we only have
printers and CAP is native ETalk, we don't need IP-Talk.

Flip side,
