Hello:

I was wondering how I could get my NeXT to allow Suns to print on
it.  I have made a test printcap entry on the Suns, but access
continues to be denied.

I ran PrintManager on the NeXT and tried setting the domain to
"/" (the default), but I got an error message saying that I could
not export printer access to itself (maybe something about setting
it's domain to it's own?).

I don't know much about NetInfo and am new to the NeXT so I don't
know much about domains.  I thought that the NeXT's hostname must
be in at least one of the domains (kinda like /etc/hosts).  I do
know that I cannot make another domain containing the machine I
want to export to unless I start running a NetInfo network, which
is NOT what I want to do.

Thanks in advance.
