Subject: [netatalk-admins] Filesharing Mac & PC

Hi,
I have installed netatalk 1.4b2 and a Samba-Server (for Windows-Clients) on
a Linux box to share files (PC/Mac) on the Linux Server. I´m still a bit
confused about Apple Filehandling, so some questions appeared and I hope
for some help.
I moved some Word documents (.doc in PC) to Linux and loaded them on the
Mac -> works fine.
Then I moved some HTML and GIF Files from the PC to the Linux box and tried
to open them with the Mac
Result: The Mac claims that he can not open the file because it has not
been found !? The File and directory permissions are far open (rwx for
owner/group/other) so the files should we loadable.
So I can see them on the Mac, but loading is not possible (BTW all that
happening with OS 8.0)
The Mac even shows only the Standard-Icon for these documents.
Anyone a clue?
BTW Is there a source of information about these (for a PC user) confusing
.Apple.. files?
Thanks in advance
Christian
