I'm trying to set up a home network using a linux box as a server with two other macs running os9. As a newbie much of the setup with netatalk docs seems over my head :( Maybe someone could walk me through? Or give me some tips on set up? I played around with netatalk about 1 1/2 years ago. The only reason was the joy to copy my mp3 files from my Mac OS 9 Box to my brand new lnux notebook. Finally, it was not very difficult: * edit the config files * restarting the server * connect from Mac to Linux box One tipp: use a separate directory to share with the Macs, no data dir, no music dir, no home dir, because netatalk has to save the resouce fork of the mac files as seperate file for each stored file. To get it to work, use google. It's not difficult, but needs some time to read.

Phew, tar.bz2 is most common at first a tar.bz2 file which contains anything, not necessary a program. If it is a program, this are most probably the programs sources, which you have to compile by yourself; this is not the easiest thing for beginners. First of all, you have to extract this file. Try right-clicking on it and choose something like 'extract here'. Have a look to the then shown directory and tell us more about the contents. On the other hand, which program do you want to install? If there are rpm-files for it, you should prefer using them instead of compiling it by yourself.
