I am going to be setting up a NetWare 3.11 server shortly and I have a question
concerning routing print to an Apple LaserWriter.

Here is the configuration.

Compaq Deskpro 386 25, 610MB hard drive, 12MB of memory, and a 3Com EtherLink 
Plus ethernet card.  All of our MACs are on ethernet.  All of our LaserWriters 
are on PhoneNet.  We are connecting to the LaserWriters from the MACs via a 
Kinetics FastPath 4.  My question is will I be able to connect to the 
LaserWriters from the DOS machines with this configuration or do I need to buy 
a Dayna DL2000 card and put it in the server just for the printers?  Is the 
DL2000 card the only one that will work, if I must go this route?  I believe 
that we have a Novell NL1000 in a Netware 2.15 server that is no longer being 
used (the NL1000 is not used, the server is still in use).  I seem to remember 
some traffic on here awhile back about the NL1000 not being supported under 
Netware 3.11 but I can't remember the specifics.  Oh yes, all of out MACs are 
AppleTalk Phase II.

Thanks in advance for any help.
