Can anybody tell me how to get printers working from terminal
servers (LAT).

We run a DECSystem 3100 serving  Decstation 2100's.
We can access teh system from a terminal server but I can't
get a printer to work.

I've tried every combination in "System and Network Management" Vol 4,Guide
to Ethernet communications servers.

What should be in a printcap file? ttys file? Are there some tricks
that an Ultrix beginner would not know.

The target printers work perfectly off VMS queues.

Oh, and by the way, we can't get Mail to work either. This is sent from
a VMS system.
