Adding these lines in /etc/conf.modules eliminates the error messages in
/var/log/messages after booting. There is written instead:

...
kernel: NET4: AppleTalk 0.18 for Linux NET4.0
atalkd[546]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
atalkd[546]: zip_getnetinfo for eth0
rc: Starting linuxconf succeeded
PAM_pwdb[568]: (login) sessoin opened for user root by LOGIN(uid=0)
atalkd[546]: zip_getnetinfo for eth0
atalkd[546]: zip_getnetinfo for eth0 // that's right, two times!
atalkd[546]: config for no router
atalkd[546]: ready 0/0/0
atalk: atalkd startup succeeded
papd[604]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
atalk: papd startup succeeded
atalk: afpd startup succeeded
afpd[612]: linuxpc:AFPServer@* started on 65280.240:128 (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
afpd[612]: ASIP started on 192.168.1.27:548(1) (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)

Looks successful, doesn't it? Unfortunaltely, I cannot see any server using
the MacOS chooser on my ethernet connected PowerBook. On the PowerBook,
AppleTalk is started and when I connect the PowerBook to the linux machine
booted in MacOS, file sharing works without problems.

/etc/atalk/AppleVolumes.default contains a — (tilde). Is there any other
setup or connection tests I have to/can do?

Thanks.
