This is what helped in my case: If you used an earlier version of Netatalk before (like 1.6) then there are hidden Mac files in the Linux home directories (e.g. ".AppleDB"). This happens because typically all home directories are shared by the standard version of the AppleVolumes.default. Those hidden files obviously led to the behavior of Netatalk 2 you and I observed: it doesn't offer any directories on the Mac client. I deleted all of those files in all of the home directories (not just in the one I was trying to connect). I think this issue is sort of described on the Netatalk developer's page: http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/2.0/htmldocs/upgrade.html. However, I didn't get all the details there and simply deleted the hidden files. Didn't do any damage in my case. A good solution probably is: Copy the entire directory contents to a Mac. Clear the Linux directories (including hidden Mac-relavant files, but not the Linux-relevant files). Upgrade to Netatalk 2. Move back the original contents.
