Thanks Ben.  I have looked at netatalk in the past, although I didn't
get very far with it.  I think it's mainly used to let a Linux machine
appear in the Mac's chooser so that a Mac user can mount linux drives
and use the printers.  I'm not sure if it's bidirectional though, I
couldn't figure out how to mount the mac's drives on the linux box.
