I rebooted Linux (because I'm such a newbie, I had no idea how to restart
afpd and atalkd!), and now the server shows up and allows me to connect. I
am playing an mp3 right now and so far so good - it hasn't stopped. :)

It says it is using AppleTalk.
What are the implications of switching it to TCP instead? Will it be harder
to access? Will I still use the chooser to get to it? Will it be
transparent the way AppleTalk is now?
I just want to say thanks to all who have helped me! This list and the
people on it are fantastic! Thanks folks! =)
