Hi,

I'm trying desperatly to get netatalk to work so a mac workstation can
access our linux webserver (cygnus.intergrafix.net) files. However, it is
being very difficult. I have tried both the .rpm and .tar.gz versions of
netatalk with the same results on bootup. I'll try to give you as much
detail as possible.

If i let atalkd make my atalkd.conf, on bootup I get:
starting appletalk daemons:Net (0) not in net-range (65280-65534)
 atalkdbind: Cannot assign requested address
bind: Cannot assign requested address

 And in /var/log/messages:
 papd[648]: restart (1.4b2)
 afpd[650]: main: atp_open: Cannot assign requested address

If I put nothing in the atalkd.conf, on bootup I get:
starting appletalk daemons: atalkd,
nbp_rgstr: Connection timed out
Can't register cygnus:Workstation@*
nbp_rgstr: Connection timed out
Can't register cygnus:netatalk@*
 nbprgstr papd afpd

 And in /var/log/messages:
 atalkd[660]: restart (1.4b2)
 atalkd[660]: zip_getnetinfo for eth0
 last message repeated 2 times
 atalkd[660]: as_timer multiple interfaces, no seed
 atalkd[660]: as_timer can't configure eth0
 atalkd[660]: as_timer waiting for router
 atalkd[660]: ready 0/0/0
 papd[672]: restart (1.4b2)
 afpd[674]: Can't register cygnus:AFPServer@*

Then my ethernet card (onboard Intel EtherExpress Pro 100) goes nuts with
 eth0: Tx timeout: Transmit timed out
 eth0: Trying to restart the transmitter...

My ethernet is on eth0 and i'm using ip aliasing for virtual domains, so i
have eth0:1 eth0:2 eth0:3, etc..

'ifconfig eth0' reports
eth0 Link encap: 10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:C9:60:50:0A
     inet addr: 206.245.154.68 Bcast:206.245.154.127 Mask:255.255.255.192
     EtherTalk Phase 2 addr:65280/160
     UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU: 1500 Metric: 1

     RX packets: etc, etc..
     TX packets: etc, etc..
     Interrupt: etc, etc..

PLEASE help if possible. Thanx.
