Yes.  Don't use it unless you have to.  There are all kinds of bugs in it

a) Try telneting in and cd'ing to /Net/Appleshare, then to a Appleshar server.
The person working on the console at the time will get a box asking for a user
id and password for it.

b) Anyone can access the the Appleshare volume once mounted.  All they would
have to do is chown the top level dir to the person mounting the files, and
set the permissions on the dir, and this wouldn't be as bad a problem.

c) It keeps the Appleshare volume mounted after the user logs off.

e) It seems to have some problems with unmounting Appleshare volumes.  It
would claim I was still using a volume, when I wasn't.  Only solution was to
reboot the NeXT.

d) I have yet to be able to set up an Appleshare Printer using PrintManager.
Everytime I try and get a list of Appleshare Printers, it goes into La-La land
and spins the cursor until I kill it (I think 30 minutes was enough time)

That's what I can think of, off the top of my head.  Phase I Appletalk Network,
not real large, but once we go Phase II it will be huge as we connect to the
rest of the company...
