Ok, I got things sorta working now, my 8.6 machine can see the Share
madeavailable via netatalk on the MkLinux machine, and I have a
LaserwriterIISC (localtalk laserwriter) setup on that 8.6 machine, using the
localtalk bridge to share that printer with the network, how do I setup both
this machine (YDL 2.0) and the Mklinux Machine, to use that printer, over
netatalk?
