There are a couple of options.  You can use GatorShare, from Cayman, which  
will let your Macs talk to the NeXT via NFS (the NeXT is the server),
Phone: 617-494-1999
There are probably other Mac NFS clients out there.
There is uShare from Information Presentation Technologies, Inc.  This  
supports printer sharing, also. Phone: 805-541-3000.
There is the CAP 6.0 package, which is a freely available package from  
Columbia University that lets your NeXT be an AppleShare server that your  
Macs can talk to via EtherTalk (no LocalTalk, but you are in the right  
situation for this one).  One source (given to me by archie) is:
emx.cc.utexas.edu:/pub/mnt/source/appletalk/cap-6.0.
I have heard that this compiles OK for NeXTs, although I have not  
attempted to do it myself.
