All you Linux-heads out there...

Just decided this afternoon to run Appletalk on my Linux box at work. Had it up and running a couple of hours no problem. It's sweet. I do have one problem though. I can't seem to share out any volumes on the Linux box other than those in the /home directory (which is by default). I've checked and triple-checked (notice that he went from the "single check" right for the "triple check" skipping the "double check") the AppleVolumes.default and .system files in the ../atalk/etc area, and even though I have volumes spec. to share out, I don't see them. Guest gets nothing. I checked file permissions on these files to make sure they had at least w+r, but still nothing works. Anyone had any experience running AT on Linux and had this problem? Before I compiled atalk with no shadow passwords, I could get whatever volumes I specified in guest but couldn't log in as a regular user (no shadow password support, remember?). After I recompiled afpd w/shadow password support, I g!
 et this weird inflexibility... I
used the AppleVolumes.default and .system files that were provided in the 1.4.2 beta distribution (in the ../config area) but added only two lines for additional shares to both the *.system and *.default files:

/home "People"
/usr "Usr Area"

Doesn't work!

Otherwise, I would highly recommend this product to anyone. It's killer...
