   Well, the first problem is you're running non-existent software. The
   latest version of netatalk is 1.3a (as in alpha). So I guess you
   really *didn't* have a problem, QED.

   Oh! Oh! Me! I do! I do!

   Humor aside, good questions, Chris. Thanks for taking the time to test
   this on a non-obvious machine. It showed up a number of bugs (really
   stupid ones, I might add, if I were in a self-depricating mood). Now,
   I could tell you what the fixes are (there are three), or I could pass
   out my much changed latest source, as say, 1.3a2 (that's alpha 2, for
   the version number impaired).

   Any comments?

Please do.

I tried to get it running on my 386i at home. I applied the patches I
had to do to get 1.2.1 running, but no cigar :-(

So if you have been doing extensive hacking I might as well go for
that before spending to much time on obsolete software.

Thomas
