I'm trying to print to a shared printer on a W98 machine that's also running
Norton Internet Security. Unfortunately, Norton makes that impossible. Is
there a way to allow this to happen w/o disabling NIS every time I need to
print?

Alternatively, how can I get my XP Pro machine to access the printer through
NetBeui? That's how I had it previously until I upg to XP.
