Hi.
I'm new at the world of Apple and NetATalk and -guess what- have a few
Problems. I read through a lot of docs and listend to this list for
quite
a while. Hope somebody can help me.
1) If somebody tries to duplicate a folder one of two things can happen
a) Error message that you do not have enough rights
b) The folder was created but no files are duplicated
I looked through the users and all have 'users' as the primary
group. All folders are created (if) with the rights as all the other
folders.
2) If somebody links images within an Freehand, Quark, Photoshop doc
which is stored on the server, he must relink the images if he
reloads the document later. As they told me, it worked in the past -
the difference - the server has been a M$-NT-Server ...
3) If an images is stored it happens that the file is getting corrupted.
I read a lot about the CRLF-conversion problems. I'm not quite sure
if the currently running version does CRLF-conversion, but it looks
if the server is converting these Freehand, Photoshop and all other
documents.
a) Is there a switch to disable crlf without recompiling NetATalk?
I think my head is not at the point to reinstall it properly
b) Please have a look at the AppleVolumes.system file at the end of
this mail. I looked through the folders and nearly all documents
do NOT have extensions. How does the server get the filetype
information? How does the server use this file?
4) Are there good books/tutorials about Mac-Networking, NetATalk and
all the things around it?
ALL comments are welcome.
Kind regards
Harald
