>Originator:     John Preisler
>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386
>Organization:
VaporNet Inc.
>Environment:

freebsd server serving via nfs, samba, and netatalk.  No appletalk zones, two
other macs on the LAN.

>Description:

after recompiling latest sources,  I noticed the macs could no longer log into
the netatalk server.  Further investigation shows 
Oct  6 08:41:02 nitromethane afpd[292]: Can't register nitromethane:AFPServer@*
Oct  6 08:41:04 nitromethane papd[294]: can't register nitromethane:LaserWriter@*
it cant register itself on the network. I've tried netatalk both from the home site
and from the ports collection and neither currently works.  I have netatalk in the kernel,
and appletalk [ddp] shows up in the routing tables.

atalkd still remains up, but afpd and papd die right away once they cant register themselves
on the appletalk network.  This means that macs can see the server on the network but
cant establish a connection to log in.


>How-To-Repeat:

try and launch the netatalk tools; fails every time.

>Fix:
	
unfortuneatly, I have no fix.  I will be happy to test whatever whnever however though.
