Let me guess: in this case, removing the AppleTalk and AppleShare
preferences (well, don't actually remove them, for I might be wrong)
should make login work well again. Now I remember I had this too, with a
Pulsar (?) clone client against Helios' EtherShare on an Apple Network
Server, so I don't think it is netatalk specific, but a bug in Apple's
networking code. And 8.1 didn't seem to fix it for me.
Is anybody else seeing this?

PS: You might want to try to reproduce the problem, trying to trace it
with afpd's -d option; this might give us a clue.
