Other than that, netatalk compiles out of the box, or you can use the port. One caveat is that netatalk wasn't completely working on 2.2.5-RELEASE, so you may want to grab something newer from releng22.freebsd.org. If you did all this and don't know what to do next, for printing I wouls suggest http://www.giub.unibe.ch/~eugster/appleprint.html . This is for Linux, but if you've been running FreeBSD for a little while it should be easy enough to adapt it, especially if you're armed with the printing information out of the Handbook. A bug in my MUA causes news.announce.newusers font to be sent to beneficiaries and senders of UCE/SPAM. @ mcs.net Wishes are like dishes.
