Older versions of samba had a --with-netatalk configure option for this kind of thing. The functionality was lost with the move to a VFS layer, but a module was recently written by 'cat' (from sam-solutions, I don't have his e-mail handy). I suggest you search the samba-technical archives and try out the module. (If you report success, I'll look to land it in the 'examples' dir in HEAD dosesn't get lost).
