I have seen this, too, even *without* netatalk. Specifically, I've had
a couple of machine starting exhibiting this behavior when connecting to
a SunOS 4.1.1 machine via our GatorBoxes. Both started having the problem
when upgraded to MacOS 8. One was a 6400/200, the other an 8500/150. On
the other hand, I've got other MacOS 8 machines that don't have the problem
at all (e.g., a 9600/300, 7300/180). Dunno what the cause might be, since
I don't discern any pattern to the kind of machine it occurs on, other than
it's only for MacOS 8 systems.
