With Linux kernel Appletalk support compiled as a module, you can stop
the netatalk daemons, wait a couple of seconds, rmmod appletalk, and
restart the daemons. Or, if you're using kerneld and wait for a few
minutes, the module will be unloaded automatically.

The kernel appletalk code can not be stopped and then
restarted. However, when it is made into a module, it can be loaded
and unloaded at will (when not in use, that is), and the unloading
process will also clean up all the reentrancy problems. As far as
appletalk is concerned, the machine has been rebooted.
