This applies to using the OS X public beta Appleshare IP client and
connecting to various netatalk servers (all pre-asun2.1.4-37, I think).
Some shares mount, but then fail to correctly generate a directory list
(everything is 0 MB). Can't copy anything from the share (error -1401)
Some shares mount, and one can copy files from them, but then it fails on
copy to the share (error -36).
Some shares mount, and can copy files from netatalk shares, but at
depressingly low speeds (haven't got great statistics yet; but around
200-300 kb/s). However, they can write faster than that (closer to 1
MB/s?). That said, for the same files transferred by FTP (using NcFTP) I
get 7 MB/s.

I get the same results while connected to a MacOS9 machine using TCP/IP filesharing (shareway OEM) on two work machines (large network); At home (1 machine) on a 2-zone network, I haven't seen the same problem, but that's not quite statistically significant.
So, I think the problem is at least partly with the client.
