* VM + Debian 10 + your project from source- identical to Debian 11. * VM + Debian 11 + your project from source - share and zone show up, but on connect "the file server "NAME" does no use a recognizable logon sequence, you cannot connect to it" * RPi4 + Debian 11 + Netatalk2.2.5 deb file - works fine in OS9, share/zone name shows up in System6 but on connect "no response from server" But no luck with other various Netatalk2 attempts. I can get A2SERVER compiled and running on a Debian 8 Jessie VM and working with GSport no problems, everything shows up as expected. I've been playing with GSport running ROM3 and System 6.0.2 with not much luck.
#LINUX NETATALK SERVER MAC OS X#
I've gotten Netatalk 3 working with Mac OS X machines (tested on my real iMac G5 OSX 10.5.8), and Netatalk 3 (manual IP only) and Netatalk 2 (AppleTalk automatic detection) on my real iMac 333 running OS 9.2.1. I'm mucking about with my own project at the moment, although I'm not a developer (just a lowly sysadmin), so I'm just combining a lot of open source tools into one installer for people to run on a Raspberry Pi for network storage all manner of old computers and consoles. I'd love to get feedback and bug reports, if you run into anything! I'm a total noob when it comes to AFP (and C programming) so I may very well have made plenty mistakes!Ĭlick to expand.By sheer coincidence I found your project earlier this week, and have been tinkering with it most of the week. The papd, timelord, and a2boot services are optional and only for those who need printer server, time server, and Apple II netboot functionality, respectively.
#LINUX NETATALK SERVER INSTALL#
configure -enable-systemd -enable-ddp -enable-a2boot -enable-cups -enable-timelord -enable-zeroconf -disable-quota -sysconfdir=/etc -with-uams-path=/usr/lib/netatalkĪfterwards, a 'make install' will install and enable the systemd services, and you can start the 'atalkd' and 'afpd' services. To compile all the bells and whistles for vintage Macs, while disabling features that don't make sense for the same, configure like this:
If you want to play around with it, please simply clone the repo and check out the branch-netatalk-2-x branch. Resolved a large number of autoconf bootstrap and compiler warnings and errors (gcc 10).Make it possible to disable AppleTalk session tickles, and other improvements for better support for AppleTalk 58 and earlier.Make it possible to compile with LDAP support.Add support for OpenSSL 1.1, while retaining backwards compatibility with OpenSSL 1.0.Support both Linux and NetBSD FIRSTNET behavior, which caused errors like "setifaddr: eth0 (1-65534): Invalid argument.Apple II: Retain folder dates when copying on GS/OS.Apple II: Better compatibility with Asante and Dayna network bridges.The Timelord daemon can now run on modern systems.
#LINUX NETATALK SERVER DRIVERS#
Printer server: Better compatibility with Apple LaserWriter 7 and 8 drivers on Mac OS and GS/OS (special thanks to and the A2SERVER team!).Use the -enable-systemd configure option.
All daemons can run as systemd services.For one, it gives the community insight into each and every change that has gone into this fork, and secondly, it is keeping the flame and hope alive that we one day can get a mainline Netatalk 2.2.7 release! As such, you may leverage Netatalk PRs on GitHub as the changelog. The way I approached the development process, was to work in relatively atomic PRs against the mainline branch-netatalk-2-2. After a few months of gathering patches and testing, I'm ready to share with you all Netatalk 2.x, the latest and greatest among Netatalk forks! Here are a few of the major ones that I encountered:Īll this fragmentation seemed like a huge missed opportunity to me. In addition, there is an outstanding bug that frequently causes it to fail to run on Linux with an error in setifaddr.Īs a matter of fact, in the 5 years since the release of Netatalk 2.2.6 an impressive number of forks and projects with their own downstream patchset to keep Netatalk running have emerged. Unfortunately, Netatalk 2.2.6 (which was the last one in the 2.x series) no longer compiles out of the box on modern systems. For us who want to use Netatalk with really quite old Macs (and Apple //e & //gs) Netatalk 2.2 is mandatory. For those who are unaware, Netatalk 3.x dropped support for the AppleTalk / DDP protocol in favor of TCP/IP. While researching Netatalk integration with RaSCSI it struck me just how painful it was to get Netatalk 2.2 working well on a modern Linux distro.
