Are there any other AppleTalk routers on your network?
If so what network ranges do they seed.
If not try the following:
shut down every mac on the network
set seed information in atalkd.conf (choose a suitable zone name and a
network range of something like 10-20)
start netatalk.
now start up the macs.
