#Netatalk home directory software#

My plan is to bring this old beast back inside and get it running with some old software and post my progress! Just found my Color Classic out in the garage under a bunch of shelving doing nothing.

#Netatalk home directory upgrade#

Next up, a bigger challenge, printing!! And I'm going to upgrade my Ubuntu server version as well! Security-wise I'm pretty sure this isn't that tough to break, so I wouldn't do this on an untrusted network, but at home, I'm not too worried.

#Netatalk home directory password#

After a quick authentication with my Linux userid and password - I was in!!

#Netatalk home directory mac#

done.Īfterwards on the Mac I fired up the chooser, selected AppleShare and picked my server "Atlantis" from the list. Starting Netatalk services (this will take a while): atalkd afpd papd. Stopping Netatalk Daemons: afpd cnid_metad papd timelord atalkd. Restarting Netatalk Daemons (this will take a while) To make these changes active either restart your machine or hit the command line and do the following as root on the Linux machine (or sudo will work fine too!) So now the directory /opt/share/mac will be shared out as "macusers" and available in the chooser. opt/share/mac "macusers" options:upriv dperm:0770 fperm:0660 To set this up for the mac, you need to edit the file /etc/netatalk/fault. And with NFS and Samba I did the same for the other Windows and Unix machines in the house at the same time! I had everything I needed to start sharing! By default the system shared out my home directory on the server, but I decided to add to that and share out a dedicated space for the Mac. Well I started playing around with WordPerfect and thought, "gee wouldn't it be nice to be able to save files to my file server"! Well, it turns out that it's simple to create some Apple compatible shares to do just that! Netatalk to the rescue! I'm running Ubuntu server on my file server (9.10 - whoa that's older than I thought!), so with a quick

My couple hour upgrade took a few days of messing around to finally get back to where I was!! Now, back to setting up that printer. Finally after all of this I restarted all the netatalk daemons as before byįinally firing up the color classic and hitting chooser (for the millionth time!) I saw the server listed and was able to connect to my home directory!! A quick edit of /etc/netatalk/fault to add in my other directory and I'm now back in business!! I hope this helps someone out there with setting this up! What a huge pain to get all figured out. Therefore, I needed to set up the appletalk daemon to be a seed on eth0 and set the address to 1000.142. The key here is that on my network this linux box is the only server on the wire. Now in /etc/netatalk/nf is set up like Įth0 -seed -phase 2 -net 0-65534 -addr 1000.142 The keys to these settings are bolded above -ddp is needed for appletalk and uams_clrtxt.so is needed to support clear text passwords (again security concern for some, but not worried on my home network). tcp -ddp -uamlist uams_dhx.so,uams_dhx2.so, uams_clrtxt.so -nosavepassword Next up I needed to tweak the config files for the services afpd and atalkd. # If you use "AFP over TCP" server only, run only cnid_metad and afpd. # papd, timelord and a2boot are dependent upon atalkd. # If you need legacy AppleTalk, run atalkd. After digging around I found that I needed to change some lines in /etc/default/netatalk to make atalkd (appletalk daemon), papd (printing daemon) and afpd (file sharing daemon) start up automatically by setting them to run=yes read the manual! Finally things clicked!įirst things first - once I installed the default netatalk packages through apt-get, I noticed that not all of the same services got started that were running before. Finally, after google searching for forever and trying a million combinations I sat down and. nothing!! The mac color classic couldn't see it! I messed around with settings, over and over and over and nothing seemed to work.

#Netatalk home directory install#

So, I blew it all away and started from scratch! Once it was back up I put some of my base software on it and then launched the netatalk install and. Well the Ubuntu server upgrade crashed and burned horribly!! I ran the updates and they went fine, but in the end, the grub bootloader failed badly! I tried booting up with live-cd's, remounted the drives, tried to re-install grub etc.
