I happily use netatalk on 3 debian machines using ethernet cards which all use the wd driver module. Today I go to set it up on a DEC XLe6180 which has a builtin Intel EtherExpress 100 card in it. The IP drivers work great at both 10 and 100 Mbps. However Netatalk just isn't happy, it can't see the appletalk network out there (well it kind-of worked once out of many tries---picked an invalid net number and could aecho some other machines...).
I didn't think it was relevant which ethernet driver I was using, but eventually, after comparing with the other machines I have, it all pointed to the ethernet card and driver being the culprit! Sure enough someone tells me that appletalk won't go on any Intel cards, is this true? If so, are there any other cards people know of that I should stare clear of to? I'm installing this server for lots of people with Macs to share files with... 8<--------------------------------------->8 Richard Shepherd ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Phone: 07-838-4764 8<--------------------------------------->8 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
