Installing Netatalk on OpenBSD
Install Netatalk
A binary netatalk3 port exists for OpenBSD (despite the name, it packages netatalk 4 at the time of writing.)
Ex. (with root privileges)
pkg_add -I netatalk3
For building and installing from source yourself, for instance to get a newer version, follow the guides linked here.
Run
Netatalk 3.2 and later ships with an OpenBSD init script.
Enable and start the service
rcctl -d enable netatalk
rcctl -d start netatalk
