Correction for woody: apt-get install netatalk It will modprobe the appletalk module in the startup for you. I can't get the passwd to work yet. I comes setup to allow users on the debian box to connect to their home directory. Works fine on potato as it passes a clear text passwd but on Woody it uses double encypted passwd which doesn't work.
