+o Certain DOS-based applications that make use of non-
standard file locking mechanisms may not work properly.
Specifically, programs that rely only on the DOS SHARE
program or on non-standard file attributes (like SYSTEM
and HIDDEN) on the DOS side.
+o If you are using Sun's PC-NFS client, you may be unable
to print from Microsoft Word for Windows 6.0. This is
a known problem with Word and PC-NFS; Microsoft's WEB
site (www.microsoft.com) has a detailed description of
the problem and a work-around; look for article Q110008
in Microsoft's Knowledge Base. Here's a summary of how
to fix the problem:
In Windows 3.1, run the Print Manager, choose Network
Settings from the Options menu and clear the Print Net
Jobs Direct check box and click OK. Choose Printer
Setup from the Options menu, choose the Connect button,
clear the Fast Printing Direct To Port check box and
click OK. Restart Word, and you should now be able to
print to a pcnfsd printer.
+o PC-NFS clients must be able to NFS-mount
/var/spool/pcnfs in order to print via pcnfsd. Hence,
printing problems may be caused by access controls on
mount points. For example, if you have the following
line in your /_e_t_c/_e_x_p_o_r_t_s file:
/ -access=compaq
only the host named compaq will be able to print via
pcnfsd.
