I can recreate your symptoms on my Solaris 2.5.1 boxxes with 1.4b2.
However, after i do the /etc/init.d/atalk stop I still find running
atalk processes.
Kill them off and you (i) can /etc/init.d/atalk start.
However, the only mac os that causes this problem appears to be 7.5.X,
my 8.0 and 7.6.x boxxes _do_not_ cause this to happen.
Anybody else seeing this? Is it a Solaris/7.5.X only problem?
