I'm posting this, hoping it gets to the list (as my subscription effort
hasn't been passed by the moderator yet). I'll check the list archive web
site for responses but I'd appreciate being Cc: on any :)
Anyway, I've been running Netatalk on my SS20/Solaris 2.5 machine for a couple
of weeks now and have run into a *big* problem.
We have one Mac 7600 (7.5.3) using the Netatalk to access a group server
(for data backup purposes). Anyway, occasionally the Mac will crash taking
both afpd processes with it - I don't know whyit kills the parent, but it
does.
Logs show the following:
Aug 1 11:07:50 sparcy afpd[7878]: afp_die: asp_shutdown: Connection timed out
However this doesn't appear to be related (synchronised with the crashes) to
the problem, but:
When I do /etc/init.d/atalk stop the following occurs:
Aug 4 10:34:33 sparcy atalkd[202]: as_down remove le0 65280.206 failed: No such
file or directory
And the machine becomes unresponsive to all IP traffic - to all its
(about 100) IP interfaces.
I then have to manually reboot the sparc at console.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Paul Gregg
