IMO, you might get more benefit by hosting a small TLUG at your
apartment some weekend.  I imagine that between 4-8 people would
turn up.  You could put a cap on the maximum amount of members.
TLUGers could eat lunch at some restaurant close to your apartment
then walk over to your place.  You could have the meeting on
Linux - Sun - Mac interconnectivity.  Just an idea.  BTW, I've
never set up NIS before.

On a different note, has anyone been able to print web pages
on Linux in Japanese with graphics in it?  I can print the Japanese
text of the web page fine.   However, when I try to save the
entire file as PostScript from within Netscape I get mojibake.
I suspect that Netscape 3.0 is not interpretted the Japanese
encoding method properly.  I vaguely remember doing this with
Mosaic a while ago.  However, I can't get Mosaic to run anymore
because I don't have the old lib required.  

Oh yea, I updated the TLUG archive to include December '96 and
January '97.  If the Internet access between the TLUG site and
your workstation is too slow, you might consider getting the
archives by e-mail.  Send the command

to majordomo@example.com if you want to get a listing of
available majordomo commands.
