I think the limitation is not with netatalk but the AppleShare client on the
Mac. It works this way with any AFP server, netatalk or not... The way I get
round this is to put create a group for the common volume and add the appr user
ids to that group, then give everyone permission to mount the common volume
(directory). This is easily done using the AppleVoulmes.systema nd
AppleVolumes.default mechnism discussed in another thread.
