I am having the same problem however when trying to recompile afpd I get
this ERROR:
main.c:255 'TIOCNOTTY' undeclared (first use this function).....
I am now using REDHAT 5.0 (Hurricane). I was using Builtmore and
netatalk was working great. Now All I can do is get in as guest.
Thanks for the help.
