Hmm, this seems like a SuSE oddity. I don't use it.. Just on a
hunch, open up /etc/rc.d/init.d/atalk in an editor, look for a line
with /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions, and replace it with
/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc.functions
Other than that, try running atalkd manually. I'm not sure if that
will start up your papd and atd or not, so you will want to make sure
they are running, and if not, run them too.

Ed Schwartz--
Thanks for the suggestion.
The command /etc/rc.d/init.d/atalk start returns...
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: No such files or directory
But there is a 3.7KB file at that location.
