Hello all,

I want to share some partitions with a Apple Macintosh. I just installed the
appletalk protocol. I now can see my debian server in the apple chooser.
Wenn I choose the debian server I am asked for a user name / passwd. The
problem is: regular accounts on the debian server are not accepted. What's
rong?

An other question: how can I share partitions with the Mac?

Haven't used it myself, but there's a detailed article in a recent
LinuxWorld:

http://www.veryComputer.com/

"AppleTalk services under Linux-Netatalk paves the way for Mac to talk
to Linux"

I would like to know HOW you installed netatalk.

I have downloaded it BUT the readme might as well be in martian for all the
sense it makes to a newbie like me.

Any help VERY much appreciated.

Well, i agree with you: the documentation did not help me very much:-(

I have used dselect to install the appletalk package as well as the lib files.
After this installation i got the situation as described above: I can see the
linux server, but can not login...

Bas
