Hi Mark,

You don't mention any errors when starting or running atalkd. If you put a
Mac on the same ethernet segment as your server, does the server show up
then? If so, that might be a routing issue.

If not, have you tried using nbplkup to make sure your server shows up to
itself? Do any other Mac devices show up?

The IP subnet of your machines is irrelevant to AppleTalk protocols. But
they do co-exist just fine.
