i have the -asun enhanced version 1.3 installed. when i type atalkd its
starting up and i can edit /etc.netatalk/atalkd.conf to restrict it to a
certain interface. on ps -x it shows up as:
245 ?? S 0:00:07 atalkd
but it doesnt state the interface as the dhclient does.
it doesnt show up in the chooser and when i try connecting via ip# it doesnt
work either.
what i need is a how-to that explains how to configure it once it is started
up. the man pages arent very helpful to me (i am a novice user on unix!)
and how do i set up a shared folder or volume? how do i set permissions? is
there a sample script or config file for the version i am running?
i am really stuck with this... help!
