It's not me that needs netatalk running. I was just saying I never got it running until I moved to FreeBSD. I used to run RedHate Linux (not a typo) with the RPM to no avail. >There are some kernel components you need to have available. CONFIG_ATALK >is the minimum you need to use netatalk under Linux.
