I get the same message from time to time. I'm running netatalk 1.4b2 on
Debian/GNU Linux which shares printers and volumes between macos (7.5.x,
7.6.{0,1}) and PC (win 3.1, 95, nt) users.
After a few days/weeks running successfully, the linux box is still in
their choosers but users cannot log in ("No response from server"). In
most cases, several afpd zombies appear and the linux shutdown/reboot is
the only way to recover the netatalk functionality.
I tried to track the scenario, and it seems that this strange behaviour
takes place after several login failures and/or chooser time outs, but I'm
not sure.
Any ideas?
Regards,
