Netatalk 1.3

netatalk is a kernel-level implementation of the AppleTalk Protocol Suite for BSD-derived systems. netatalk’s primary services are routing, file service, print spooling, and outbound printing, in an AppleTalk networking environment. The current release contains support for EtherTalk Phase I and II.

netatalk-1.3 runs on the following machines:

OS Versions Hardware Notes
SunOS 4.1+ Sparc kernel must have VDDRV option installed
Ultrix 4.[1-3] 3100,5000

Changes

atalkd is completely rewritten for phase 2 support. atalkd.conf from previous version will not work!

afpd now has better AFS support. In particular, the configuration for AFS was made much easier; a number of Kerberos-related byte-ordering and time problems were found; clear-text passwords were added (thanks to geeb@umich.edu).

afpd now handles Unix permissions much better (thanks to metcalf@mit.edu).

There are many, many more changes, but most are small bug fixes.

netatalk-1.3 is available via anonymous ftp from terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu, in ~ftp/unix/netatalk/netatalk-1.3.tar.{Z,gz}.
