Re: alias and symbolic links with netatalk



Dunno about links.

Generally the setup is like this:

AppleVolumes.default file:
/path_to_shared_dir "Mac Name" [allow:user1,@group] [rwlist:user1] ...

afpd.conf
Servername -tcp -ddp -uamlist [list of uams]

atalkd.conf
leave empty - it will write its own config line

netatalk.conf
this isn't referenced by the testing init script - see the one in
/etc/defaults

papd.conf
uses printcap-style entries for LPR ONLY (you need to use a pipe to
other printing programs like lprng).

Generally it isn't a good idea to leave the default setting of '~' in
the AppleVolumes.default file as you will find all your user's home
directories littered with Apple Resource Fork files.

Hope this helps.
Rory
