I could not find the answer to this elsewhere, so....

I am using netatalk-1.4b2 on Solaris 2.5.1, and have several questions.

1) Does AppleTalk send filenames, usernames, or systemnames with print
   requests? If so, is there a way to get netatalk to pass them on to
   lpr/lp?
2) It appears that afpd suffers a limitation of 256 filehandles opened
   at one time. Is this an afpd limitation, or does it have something
   to do with Solaris?
3) Are there any configuration GUI utilities (for setting zone,
interface,
   etc)?

and

4) Is there work still being done on netatalk? I haven't seen a release
   anouncement in quite a while. It would be nice to have lpstat
printer
   support.

TIA,
