Right, I had with such regret set aside the easy answer "Samba" that I
just plain forgot to mention it.  I've used it before, and it would be
my choice, but I've never found a way to get Windows 9x to deal with
two different network logins; besides, MIS has finally got it setup so
that the default Netware login is entirely automatic, and I'm afraid of
disturbing it.  :-/  Despite ditching Netware for spooling, we still need
it for accessing shared files, so we're stuck with that.

If I could lose the Netware connection entirely I'd be all about Samba
- I've been there, it worked great.   But I don't think it's practical
in this setting.  If anyone's gotten Samba and Novell logins to play
nice together, I'm all ears.

A delicate balance is necessary between sticking with the things
you know and can rely upon, and exploring things which have the
potential to be better.  Assuming that either of these strategies
is the one true way is silly.  -- Graydon Hoare
