We're working on something, tho not on exactly what you seem to ask.
You misunderstand what the -zone flag does in atalk.conf. It is there
to tell atalkd what the zone list (and the default zone) is for the
given wire. This is why you get the "Must specify networks" error. It
does not imply anything about the zone for afpd et al. The code
doesn't currently support this, but the intension is that you will
specify afpd's zone on the command line for afpd. E.g.
afpd -n @BackboneET
would register hostname:AFPSever@BackboneET. This way, you could
register in multiple zones, or have different names in different zones,
or have your printspooler in one zone and your fileserver in another.
