I just completed a new RH 6.2 install which included
netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.2.3-7.
I too have the same error messages including the following even after
issuing the insmod command:
Mar 31 11:10:38 refold kernel: NET4: AppleTalk 0.18 for Linux NET4.0
Mar 31 11:10:49 refold afpd[971]: shutting down on signal 15
Mar 31 11:10:52 refold atalkd: socket: Invalid argument
Mar 31 11:10:52 refold atalkd: socket: Invalid argument
Mar 31 11:10:52 refold atalkd: atalkd: can't get interfaces, exiting.
Mar 31 11:10:52 refold atalk: atalkd startup failed
Mar 31 11:10:53 refold papd[1012]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
Mar 31 11:10:53 refold atalk: papd startup succeeded
Mar 31 11:10:53 refold atalk: afpd startup succeeded
Mar 31 11:10:53 refold afpd[1021]: main: atp_open: Invalid argument
Anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks!
