Hi,
adapting macdump from CAP to netatalk, a problem has come up which i do not
fully understand. Whose fault is this most likely:
Macdump works with a background program on the mac that answers ATP requests
from a CAP/netatalk unix process (client). The client asks for a dump of a
directory tree and then for each file in turn (just asks for "next file").
Once in a while an atp response will consist e.g. of packets 0,1,2,3,4,5,7
in this order, then "EOM -- seq num 7 current bitmap 64", then the unix
macdump process will request packet 6 again and never gets an answer.
This has happened on a Sun, a router and a mac on localtalk with netatalk
1.3.1, and on a linux 1.2.1 with netatalk 1.3.3b2 and a mac on the same
ethernet segment as the linux box.
In your opinion, who is misbehaving here?
Morio
