what is the difference between atalkd and afpd
In a nutshell, atalkd uses AppleTalk (via DDP) protocol(s?), while afpd
uses AFPoverTCP (via TCP).
i have problems to register my servers,
here is my network
Looks a lot like mine (except my internal network is 192.168.1.X).
Here's what I've done on my RH 6.0 Linux PC to set up netatalk:
/etc/atalk/atalkd.conf:
# [this should restrict the server to the internal network. -- rgr,
# 25-Jan-00.]
eth1 -phase 2 -net 0-65534 -addr 65280.85
/etc/atalk/afpd.conf:
# [i think this should restrict the server to the internal network.
# -- rgr, 25-Jan-00.] [added -noguest & -loginmesg. -- rgr, 21-Feb-00.]
- -address 192.168.1.1 -noguest -loginmesg "Welcome to Bob's Linux box!"
But I'm not actually using AppleTalk; the sole Mac on the network is
connected to an AppleTalk printer.
[Another thing: There has been some traffic on bugtraq recently
about how packets destined for private addresses, include the loopback
address at 127.0.0.1, may be accepted regardless of what interface they
came from. This is enabled in most Unix OS installs by default. So,
for safety's sake, you should be sure to tell your firewall to drop
packets addressed to 192.168.0.X if they come from eth0.]
If this isn't enough to get you going, you'll need to say more about
your software configuration (OS, version, how you tried to start it, any
log messages . . . )
