Hi all,
This is EXACTLY what I'm seeing; Command-I says connected via Appletalk,
and believe me, the speeds I'm getting seem to bear this out. TCP-IP is
Active (load when needed is NOT selected, but it doesn't seem to
matter,) and I'm using Netatalk-blah-blah.3-7.
I get the globe if I login to my Linux account, but the Mac data is
stored as user "macdata," and I've pasted in the icon for a shared
folder in place of the wired globe. It automounts fine and persistes
through re-boots, but it's soooo slow, with outright stalls of several
seconds during copys of more than a couple MBs or so.
