I have just installed netatalk 1.2.1 on a Sun4c running SunOS
4.1.3. I started afpd with 3 Unix filesystems listed in its
afpd.conf file. Each of the Unix filesystems contains a number
of directories, plus one plain-text file named "USERS". When I
go to a Mac (Quadra 700) and bring up the menu for any of the 3
filesystems, I find that:
  - one of the directories is missing (has no corresponding icon)
  - there is a folder icon labelled "USERS"
  - that folder contains the contents of the missing directory
  - there is no textfile icon which produces the "USERS" file
Is this all as expected? :-)

I guess my underlying question is: is netatalk, specifically
afpd, safe/desirable to run in a production environment?

Please reply directly to me as I don't receive this list.
Thanks a million.
