After you start netatalk, type "lsmod" from the linux command line. Do
you see "appletalk" as a loaded module? If not, try adding:
alias net-pf-5 appletalk
to the end of your /etc/conf.modules file. You will then need to restart
netatalk and/or reboot the machine. This line allows the linux kernel to
automatically load appletalk support when netatalk is started.
