 Hello!
 
 I've got a problem setting up an AppleTalk network with NetAtalk.
 I'm a Linux beginner and built up a litte home ethernet
 containing three computers. Two Win-PCs and one Mac, all using the
 AppleTalk protocol.
 One of my PCs is now running under Linux. With yast I sucessfully
 configured my network device as eth0. Then I installed NetAtalk.
 Following the manual, I deleted the config file (atalkd.conf).
 Now (and before I deleted this file) if I want to start NetAtalk
 via "rcatalk start" I get the following messages:
 -
 Starting netatalk:socket: Invalid argument
 atalkd: can't get interfaces, exiting. failed
 -
 What's going wrong? With Windows, my network works fine.
 I'm using SuSE Linux 6.0 (i386) Kernel 2.0.36 and the version
 1.4b2+asun2.0a18.2-22 of NetAtalk.

 Thanks in advance.
