	This is kind of what I do - I have the "public" phone book,
the WHFC software, and some printer drivers that might be needed if
the client wasn't configured in a share exported by a samba
server. When I go to set up a client I browse to the share, copy over
the WHFC program itself, and then configure it to use that remote
share for the phonebook & company cover page (in PS format). I think
a version that allowed sharing spool directories would be great.
