What kernel have you got? IIRC 2.0.33 allows you to delete appletalk
interfaces, so you can kill the daemons, ifconfig the interface down and
up again, and restart the daemons. Alternatively you can compile the ddp
stuff in as a module, kill the daemons, rmmod the modules, and restart the
daemons. [You'll have to insmod them back before restarting the daemons if
you're not using kerneld].

Er. I think that's all correct. I'm sure someone will tell me if I'm
talking through my hat/have misunderstood the problem.
