Well you help lots of us here, so I'll make a feeble attempt. The only thing I can think of is some pretty generic advice. Try simplifying the problem and breaking it up into it's components till you get to the cause. Then try new versions of the software you're running. What version of netatalk are you running? how about mkisofs? > Here's the problem: > FreeBSD server that serves files up for Windows and Mac OS X machines > (using Samba and Netatalk).

Try eliminating pulling it over netatalk if possible. > The result is a CD that works fine on FreeBSD and Windows, but on Mac OS X > it shows all the files and directorys just fine, but the data is corrupt. > It appears as though the resource fork is fine, as images have a viewable > thumbnail, but the data itself is unusable. Have you tried mounting the iso using vnconfig and seeing if the data is readable that way? On Mac OS? How about making the ISO on the Mac and then burning it (on either the Mac machine or the FreeBSD machine.) > Has anyone else seen this, or has any thoughts as to what I might be doing > wrong.

I had weird problems when I used netatalk, but it was never important to me so I never tried hard to fix it. Another thought, if you're using MacOS X, why not try NFS instead of netatalk? hope that helps, Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
