Has anyone successfully gotten their 3.0 (golden release) NeXT to talk
to atalk printers?

I had no problem under pr1 or pr2, but the brain-damaged Upgrade_3.0.app
deleted all my atalk pr2 stuff and then didn't install the release
package.  I used the installer to manually load the
/NeXTSTEP_3.0/NextCD/Packages/NeXT_AppleTalk.pkg package from the CD.

I updated my printcap entries (and niloaded them) to what they were in
pr2, but when I try to print I get:

	Sep 15 16:26:07 lothario Server:cicalab[380]: Cannot connect to
	AppleTalk services: 1102

I have no problem printing to the same printer(s) that are connected
to our ethernet via EtherPrints from our Macs/Netware machines/servers.

Any help is much appreciated,
Todd
