Good to hear you like it, but it's been quite some time since I was involved in netatalk in any way... Are you trying to build netatalk manually? The ports builds just fine for me. If you have a complete set of 4.7 CDs, you should be able to install the package using /stand/sysinstall, or install the ports collection, and run "cd /usr/ports/net/netatalk && make install && make clean". If you want to run the latest and greatest version from ports, you can update your ports collection with cvsup, which is explained in the Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html If you have specific trouble with the net/netatalk port, you should get in touch with it's maintainer (the MAINTAINER= line in the port's Makefile), or ask on freebsd-ports@freebsd.org.
