I am seeing a variation on this, where I am seeing only selected zones,
and very few printers.  On the Mac IIfx right next to my 3.0 Turbo, I can
see all, and connect to all.   

One question is complexity.  Our AppleTalk net is about 50 zones on about
30 ethernet and localTalk segments.  Has anyone seen 'flawless' connection
by a NeXT into an equally complex appletalk.  I am seeing 10 to 20 second  
delays when I click on a zone before I see any fileserver info, and 20-40  
second delays when I look for printers.

We are a Phase 2 network, if that means anything.
