mknetpr for non SGI machines.

[Brent L. Bates AAD/TAB MS361 x42854]

    If you have OS 3.3, SGI finally included the BSD lp stuff, and I
would use that.  We have a 4D/210VGX and we are using lpd to send
files to our Sun, with no problems.
    However, if you want to use the SV5 printer, why I don't know,
the way I got our 3130 (a combination of the worst of BSD and SV5)
to send files to a BSD machine is to allow the lp from the 3130 to
log onto an lp account on the BSD machine.  The /usr/spool/interface
files rcp the file from our 3130 to the BSD machine, then rsh the
lp command on the remote machine.  You need user lp on the BSD machine
and a .rhosts file in lp's home directory on the remote machine, that
is if the local machine isn't in the remote machines host.equiv file.
