I installed the FreeBSD netatalk package from the ports collection.
When I fire it up I get:

puck# sh netatalk.sh start
 netatalknbp_rgstr: Operation timed out
Can't register puck:Workstation@*
nbp_rgstr: Operation timed out
Can't register puck:netatalk@*
puck#

I can see the appletalk entries in the routing table:

puck# netstat -rn

and I can see the Macs et. al. on the network:

puck# nbplkup

                         Oberon:ARA - Client-Only 65280.75:2

etc.

So what's can the problem be?

I don't grock how these entries get registered in the NBP database.
Is it possible that I can't write to the database?
What is the mechanism for creation and storage of the NBP database?
