Wes Craig just finished the Linux port for the last release, from code started by various Linux people. I know that he's interested in doing NetBSD/FreeBSD and I believe he's waiting to get a PC to do it on. One of the other UM/ITD Research Systems programmers, Gordon Good, had it working under NetBSD 0.9 I believe. I suspect that if given the opportunity, Wes could probably knock out the port in a week or two on FreeBSD. I'm not sure how busy he is right now. If you're really interested, you should send mail to netatalk@umich.edu and ask or offer assistance. -- Paul Southworth CICNet Systems Support pauls@cic.net
