As I was having exactly the same problems, I was very glad, nay,
ecstatic, to see your summary posting. However, I had to make one
additional change in order to get Charon 2.0A working with my NW3.11
server (ethernet ii, by the way, so 802.3 is not the required frame
type) both for LPD and LPR.

additionally, I had to create the print server with a nul password. When
I later tried to login the print server using the unencrypted password
style it told me it was assuming the password was blank and then failed
to login, echoing the correct password back at me. When I made the
password nul it worked for me.

By the way, is it possible to put Cornell Kinderknecht's guidelines,
possibly with this note appended, into a .BWR file in the charon 2.0a
distributions around the net? Most new installers of Charon 2.0a for
print services will want to install with the latest version of Novell
rather than an old one, especially since LPR and LPD are only useful on
a tcp/ip internet.
