       With due respect to Steve, I would venture to guess that he is not the
person who patched and configured CAP for his local system,
a process that will require (or produce) a competent
system-manager-equivalent.  I use CAP for printing and NFS/Share
for disk access and I guarantee that you will not think CAP is free if
you are the one installing it.  There is a newsgroup 
(comp.protocols.appletalk) largely devoted to the care and feeding of the 
thing.  If you are going to be supporting many users, I'm sure it's worth it. 
If it's just a  handful, spend a few bucks and buy NFS/Share 
(tech@intercon.com) and keep your life simple.  I did have some initial 
system hangs which were due to bugs in Apple's Quadra Ethernet driver, 
no problems since that was upgraded.
