Hey everyone,
   I'm trying to get netatalk set up and running on my eMac which I
injected with a little YDL 4.  So far I've spent a butt load of time
trying to figure out to install it properly (cuz I'm pretty new to
Linux).  Now I've gotten to the point of the Linux machine showing up in
the Network browser on my Powerbook (OSX.3.8), but when I tell it to
connect I get an error that says:  This file server is running on your
machine.  Please access the volumes and files locally.

I'm guessing this has something to do with the .AppleVolumes.default
file, but I'm sure what I should do.

The only other possibility I can think of is that netatalk is set up to
connect to the Powerbook in the opposite direction.  If this is so, how
would I go about doing that.  Like I said I'm pretty new to Linux.
Could I just connect through Konqueror, or what??

Any help is greatly appreciated.



You probably won't want to hear this but...

For me AppleTalk required no configuration whatsoever (YDL 4.0 (.0)).

I merely installed the netatalk package using yum and turned on atalk
using the redhat-config-network app (or whatever it is now). Then I
made sure that it's started at boot using the same network
configuration app (both steps are obvious) and now I can log-in into
my accounts on the YDL machine (username/password, clear text
password).

You can also (as I recently discovered ;) use netatalk to share files
between the "host computer" and MOL. Under Ubuntu (5.04 developer
version) I installed netatalk and Synaptic did all the hard work --
installed 1.64, activated it and inserted it into the boot sequence
(someday I ought to figure out how to configure network services in
Fedora/YDL and Debian/Ubuntu).

eric.

I don't think I even tried that. But how did it know which folders to boot, or do you just use your home folder?

Well maybe I'll try a default install...  Silly me
