Very Computer

hi all,
i've run into a little snag with netatalk.. i have 3.0 snap, from just
a few days ago.. mid last week.. all seems happy, got apache all set to
go, then went to put in netatalk.. and got the error as in subject.. i
looked in all the atalk conf type stuff that i could spot, and i did not
even see anything with "addmulti" in there.. i went to libexec area and
found atalkd, but it looks like a binary or something.. any ideas where
this addmulti is comin from??  better yet, any ideas on how to make the
error go away??

network card is
fxp0: <Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100B Ethernet> rev 0x04
int a irq 5 on pci0.17.0

i've tried no atalkd.conf.
one with fxp0 -phase 2 -net 0-65534 -addr 65280.140

my appletalk control panels on the macs show stuff
like node: 173   network: 65280     network range: 0 to 65534  
i picked 140 at random, as the lowest of the macs has 152.. also i tried
numbers higher and lower but still get this addmulti error.. is it some
lower level stuff?? like the ethernet card and the driver??
the card is set to 10baset full duplex..

Hey Steve, RE:Below

lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
        atalk 0.0 range 0-0 phase 2

above is what i got from the ifconfig -a.. interesting it shows some
stuff about atalk in there.. i've tried kernel compiles with the line
for options NETATALK in and out.. any way i do it, i still get this
odd error, and bsd1 does not show up on atalk network.. bsd2 machine
has an ep0 card in it, and shows up just fine.. it has 2.2.5 in it..
looks like below..

lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ep0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 192.0.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.0.1.255
        atalk 66.6 range 0-65534 phase 2 broadcast 0.255
        ether 00:a0:24:69:b9:76
tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 206.184.135.86 --> 204.156.128.1 netmask 0xffffff00
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
        atalk 0.0 range 0-0 phase 2

I'm even more mystified now that i see both of these.. really makes me
think that it should be working..

I have the same trouble. I tried rebuilding netatalk from ports, and it
failed. :(

Make sure you have multicast support.
