        FWIW, the version of netatalk that works for me is:

                netatalk-1.4.99-0.20000927.tar.gz

        I never got others to work. I build the above from source.

        Under /etc/atalk, you should have:

                AppleVolumes.default
                AppleVolumes.system
                afpd.conf
                afppasswd
                atalkd.conf
                netatalk.conf
                netatalk.pamd
                papd.conf
                uams/

        Under /etc/atalk/uams, you should have:

                uams_dhx.so -> uams_dhx_pam.so
                uams_dhx_pam.so
                uams_dhx_passwd.so
                uams_guest.so
                uams_pam.so
                uams_passwd.so
                uams_randnum.so

        In /etc/pam.d, you need to have:

                netatalk -> /etc/atalk/netatalk.pamd

        The contents of /etc/atalk/netatalk.pamd are:

                #%PAM-1.0
                auth required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow
                account required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
                session required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so

        The contents of /etc/atalk/AppleVolumes.default are:

                :DEFAULT: options:crlf,noadouble
                / OldMac

        (Replace OldMac with the name of your server machine.) The
        contents of /etc/atalk/afpd.conf are:

- -uamlist uams_guest.so,uams_pam.so,uams_randnum.so,uams_dhx_pam.so,uams_dhx_passwd.so

        The contents of /etc/atalk/atalkd.conf are:

                eth0

        The contents of /etc/atalk/netatalk.conf are:

                AFPD_MAX_CLIENTS=5
                ATALK_ZONE='@*'
                ATALK_NAME=OldMac
                AFPD_UAMLIST="-U uams_dhx.so,uams_randnum.so"
                AFPD_GUEST=nobody
                ATALKD_RUN=yes
                AFPD_RUN=yes
                PAPD_RUN=no
                ATALK_BGROUND=yes

        (Again, change OldMac to your server name.)

        If you do all this, it should hopefully work for you.

        - Paul
