pcnfs printing woes

Hello netters,

I need help with printing  from PC-NFS.  So far I have been 
unable to print from the PC to the network printer.  In the 
autoexec.bat file is the command "PRT *", it starts ok. Then 
I try to use "net use lpt1: gill:nickel" to load the printer. 
I get the error "NFS049F :", which tells me the device is 
already in use.  But there  are no local printers on this PC 
at all.

When I run nfsconf to define printers and try to mount the 
printer I get the errors that there are no resources defined 
in the database.  This is not true because at the time I had 
two printers defined and one filesystem defined and mounted. 
Even after exiting nfsconf and running RTM and RNMNIS I get 
the same result. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Dexter L.
