I've got the beta software docs in front of me and I see that indeed the
Amiga does support NFS as a client only.  But I'd like to get peer to peer.
Also when will the inet.library be documented, just in case I get lots
of time free :-)

But to get things remotely printed to the Amiga involves rcp and rsh or
can you rcp directly to the PRT: of the Amiga??  (I know these are silly
questions but I haven't got my machine hooked up to the network yet.) 
Isn't there an lpr client availble??  And is SANA soon to be released?
