About a week ago I posted a message asking about software which would allow
me to send UNIX lpr printjobs to a Netware queue and Netware jobs to a 
UNIX queue.

I received a number of responses to my query.  The best solution seems to be
to use a package called Charon which can be obtained via ftp from:

omnigate.clarkson.edu in /pub/cutcp/charon2.0/charon.zoo

It is important to get version 2.0 and not 3.0.  3.0 includes support for
SMTP mail transfers but NOT printing.  I am told that Charon is also available
from the Clarkson University BBS at 315-268-6667.

I have ftp'd it and it looks good (but I haven't tested it yet).

Thanks to everyone who replied and especially david@otago.ac.nz and 
donegan@stanton.cts.com.


Brian
