Yes, this indeed appears to be a bug or misconfiguration. I have just
installed netatalk-1.4.99-0.20000927mdk on RedHat 6.0 from the RPM on
SourceForge and I'm getting the same thing.
Whilst I'm on the subject of 1.4.99, I have a few suggestions for the
default config supplied with it.
In afpd.conf it indicates that the default config for file sharing is:
- -transall -uamlist
uams_guest.so,uams_clrtxt.so,uams_dhx.so -nosavepassword
which seems a bit strange, as I believe that you have to set something
special up on the Mac side to use DHX. Providing a default of:
- -transall -uamlist uams_guest.so,uams_randnum.so -nosavepassword
would be better, so long as you have OpenSSL installed (the RPM's
dependencies seem to take care of that anyway). 2-way encrypted passwords
just work out of the box.
Also (and this is very strange), ATALK_BGROUND in netatalk.conf is set to
'no' by default! I can't imagine any situation (apart from debugging) where
you would want to run a daemon service in the foreground. Maybe this is
intentional (as it is beta), but it confused the hell out of me for a while.
