... however, dhx2 doesn't work with Mac OS 9 clients. 'cleartext' auth
doesn't support password lengths > 8 chars, so if you have a users with
longer passwords they'll be locked out.

Those of us unfortunate enough to be supporting such dinosaurs can get
NetATalk to build against OpenSSL quite easily thanks to the thoughtful
package maintainers. Just:

$ cd debtmp
$ mkdir debtmp
$ apt-get source netatalk
$ apt-get install libcups2-dev
$ apt-get build-dep netatalk
$ cd netatalk-2.0.4~beta2
$ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=openssl fakeroot debian/rules binary
$ sudo dpkg -i ../netatalk_2.0.4~beta2-5ubuntu2_i386.deb

(Versions may need adapting as appropriate).

This rebuilds NetATalk against OpenSSL, restoring the uams_dhx_pam and
uams_dhx_randnum modules.
