I posted this, below, a couple of days ago. I'm hoping to find someone who follows this list and who actually has netatalk v. 2.2.2-1 installed from the Debian package in Wheezy. I would very much like to get it working, but ... I can't. All the documentation that I can find is two or more years old, and does not pertain to the packaged version.
Surely someone is using this package. Please speak up. Paul P.S. Thanks Tom, but I need more than the fact that /etc/netatalk/netatalk.conf once existed as part of an earlier version of the package. It may still be part of a properly configured netatalk, but it doesn't seem to be included in this package. On 20120506_230937, Paul E Condon wrote: > I have a long and troubled relation to Netatalk.
