I've tried almost all versions of netatalk with OSX
(and all the tricks like loginmessage, et al)
and I tell u, the only one which is working reliably both on 9 and X is netatalk1.4b2+asun2.1.4pre37_test + client OSX 10.0.4.

As for server platform, it is working thruout SuSE 6.3, 6.4, 7.0 on Intel and PPC, as well as on LinuxPPC 2000 Q4 on a G3. Haven't tried with kernel 2.4 yet...

u find it here: ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/users/asun/testing/
(to be compiled from source. note: pre39 has the same problems as sourceforge-versions)

The sourceforge versions don't work with OSX (-43 errors all over the place, when u finally manage to log in), and they will continue to do so until there will be enough enthusiasm to solve this problem @ the netatalk project maintainers and developers....

;-(

Lorenzo

ps. if You really find a way to make any sourceforge version work with osx, please tell us how..
