---- the asun version of netatalk allows you to connect to your server with tcp/ip, this is much faster than standard appletalk, I also assume Adrian Sun has patched any "bugs" that existed in the older versions of netatalk ----> -How does the Keychain feature interfere with NetaTalk?

Aliases are for the most part not working in netatalk, they require fixed directory IDs, netatalk does not have this yet... ----
