	Did you put  options         NETATALK  in your kernel config file
and recompile your kernel?

	If you recompiled your kernel with NETETALK then this sounds like
a MacOS error.  I have the netatalk asun port installed too, and while my
freebsd machine does not show up as a choice in chooser, if you click on
the Server IP Address button, and enter the IP, username and password, I
get an icon on the desktop.
	So yes, this is using TCP/IP and then you must have I think MacOS
8.? something or higher, maybe 8.6 or higher.  If you have an older MacOS
and need to get it to work with appletalk, then I'm sorry I have not been
very helpful.  But at least you could upgrade to a newer version of MacOS.
There at least is a workable option.
