The problem is directly related to the way netatalk handles or does not
handle aliases, the only solution so far is to use appleshare client 3.8.3,
but this has a few drawbacks. Apple has released an update for OpenTransport
(2.6) this fixes a few of the problems OS9 has with netatalk.
Adrian Sun has addressed the alias issue in many messages to this list...
He has said the alias issue will be addressed in a future (soon?) release of
netatalk. Until this happens, mounting netatalk volumes at startup with OS9
will most likely not be possible (your mileage may vary).
