Please do a 'which rcatalk' and afterwards a 'ls -l /usr/sbin/rcatalk'
/usr/sbin/rcatalk -> ../../sbin/init.d/atalk
Perhaps you will imagine that /usr/sbin/rcatalk is just a symlink to the
startscript inside the init directories (in former SuSE versions
/sbin/init.d/atalk, nowadays /etc/init.d/atalk)
To look, what will be installed, take a look at:
'rpm -q -l -p ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/7.2/suse/n2/netatalk.rpm'

_These_ changes in /etc/rc.config have absolutely no effect unless you run
'/sbin/SuSEconfig', which interprets this file and does all the 'magic'
behind the scenes (like symlinking from the correct runlevels -- eg.
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/Sxxatalk or /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/Kxxatalk -- to the startscript
in etc/init.d/atalk)
Try reading 'man init' and 'man inittab' for more information.
