I'm usins netatalk on Linux and on another computer I have MacOS 8.6.

It is working well. Right now I use my Linux user's login to get data
via netatalk. The problem is that my passwords usually are larger than
6 characters, but the login window on MacOS (for my Appletalk server
volume on Linux) allows max 6 chars for login.

2 quesstions on that:

1) Is it possible to enlarge the amount of chars I can type into the
login screen on MacOS, in order to mount my Linux volumes on Mac?

2) How can I tell netatalk that user "a" uses password "secret1" on
Linux, but uses password "secret2" to log into netatalk volumes from
Mac?

Thanks for any hint!!
Claus
