Package: netatalk
Version: 2.0.4~beta2-4.1
afpd appears to have issues with symlinks when the symlink name doesn't
match the actual name of the directory.
I have a share like the following in AppleVolumes.default
/home/shared "shared" dbpath:/var/lib/netatalk cnidscheme:dbd options:ro
Inside this shared directory are symlinks to other bits of the
filesystem that I wish to share via AFP.
The following symlink will work:
ln -s /somewhere/else/Content /home/shared/Content
The following will not:
ln -s /somewhere/else/Content /home/shared/CoNtEnT
If I have the share mounted on the Mac (OS X 10.5.6 in this case) and go
into /Volumes/shared with the "broken" symlink setup and execute 'ls'
followed by 'ls -l', I would see the following:
$ ls
CoNtEnT
$ ls -l
ls: CoNtEnT: No such file or directory
afpd seems to be combining the directory that the actual 'Content'
directory lives in with the symlink name and then trying to look for
'/somewhere/else/CoNtEnT', which it should not be doing.
