Hi,
I'm working on updating net/netatalk to version 2.1 (or 2.1.1 when
that comes out the next couple of days), and I'm wondering what
state AppleTalk support is in these days. Is anybody still using
it, or would now be the time to make all AppleTalk support in that
port optional, and just focus on the file server component?
I haven't used AppleTalk for at least eight years now, and I don't
quite see which setting it still would be used in nowadays...
I did the original port to freeBSD (from a netbsd port from memory)
I haven't checked recently but it was used by several companies
running legacy stuff in some industrial control situations.
In any case it's good having a working example of another protocol
as the world is getting a bit too focused on IP these days
and having a different protocol in the sources keeps us honest.
Thanks,
Stefan
