Installing Netatalk on OmniOS


Install the latest Netatalk

For building and installing from source yourself, find links to the official documentation below.

Introduction

This page contains notes on configuring and installing Netatalk 2.x on OmniOS Community Edition; specific version used for this article was r151044.

It covers the legacy Autotools build system. In most cases, you want to follow the instructions in the links at the top of this page to install later versions instead.

Prepare environment

A git client as well as the autotools, gcc compiler and Berkeley DB are needed.

pkg install git libtool automake gcc7 bdb pkg-config

Configure and compile

Here we assume a bootstrapped tarball release is used, so we skip the bootstrap step

./configure --with-bdb=/opt/ooce
make all
make install

PAM support

OmniOS uses an old-school PAM configuration, so manual modification of /etc/pam.conf is required

See one example in this blog post titled OmniOS: Netatalk with PAM Authentication

Controlling the Netatalk service

Use the init script in /etc/rc2.d/S90netatalk to control the Netatalk service.

Ex.

sudo /etc/rc2.d/S90netatalk start
sudo /etc/rc2.d/S90netatalk stop
