I'm having some difficulty getting NetAtalk to work properly on a system running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE. I can get AFP over TCP (AppleShare IP) but classic AppleTalk (DDP) doesn't function. (...well, ok, it does function, but only on one interface) I can't find any documentation on how to properly set up atalkd.conf and afpd.conf in this situation, so I'll try and explain how this should work: There's eight ethernet ports on the FreeBSD machine -- dc0 through dc7. There are Mac workstations the switches connected to each interface. I'd like to be able to do the following: 1. Have a Mac on dc0 be able to communicate with a Mac on dc3 (or whatever) using classic AppleTalk (aka: have the FreeBSD machine route AppleTalk info between interfaces) 2. Have all the Macs be able to communicate with the server using DDP. I've tried specifying the interfaces and letting atalkd configure them as well as manually setting parameters in atalkd.conf -- neither works. atalkd seems to choose incorrect/invalid parameters for the net and address values for each interface. If I specify things manually, I either get no DDP services at all or DDP on the first interface only -- and atalkd has a tendency to alter the information in its config file. What should atalkd.conf look like? Should I make the file read-only? -- --dennis <mailto://dennis.favro@utoronto.ca> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
