I installed both Netatalk packages, and they/it doesn't work. I read somewhere, later, that they won't work if you install both. Ok. I tried to pkg_delete both and the (FreeBSD 3.3-Release) machine refused. Hmmm... Now what? > After compiling in NETATALK support in the kernel (a breeze) Isn't netatalk support part of the generic kernel? I get a "nmbd" listed when I do ps -aux. Is this netatalk? Compiling a custom kernel is not a breeze. I didn't install the source code in order to save disk space. The freeBSD box isn't connected to the internet, so CVSup is difficult. The machine is just a file server for the LAN. > and installing > the netatalk port, I just read the documentation that came with the port and What documentation? > got it running in a couple of minutes. It`s really that easy... I spent a day on it, and it doesn't run. I can successfully "ping" the Macintosh from the FreeBSD box, but the Mac cannot see/ping the FreeBSD box. > Now all the Macs in our company can see the Macintosh `shares` I`ve setup on > FreeBSD.

I also installed the CAPS package, but still no luck. Not sure how to configure it, either. Any help would be appreciated.
