If you compile pre-asun2.1.0-10a, you do not need *any* patches
whatsoever. This error is a result of not having or not setting the
location to your TCP wrappers (see README.ASUN in the source tree). If
you run an asun-patched version of netatalk, I highly recommend that
you use TCP wrappers and close access to your ASIP port 548 except by
your intended users.
TCP wrappers are available all over the place. Do a simple search for
"TCP wrappers" on the web; think most major FTP repositories (sunsite,
garbo, etc.) carry it as source. In case it's not clear, TCP wrappers
provide extra security for your TCP/IP connections: they do some
protection against spoofing and provide host/IP-based allow/deny
directives.
Also, PAM support by default is on in asun versions, but it has yet to
work properly for me on 2.6, so you probably should comment this out.
