Chooted Debian and AFP
I have installed a chrooted Debian to try to get AFP to work. I'm on a mac and would love to get it working. Has anyone got this to work?

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
@fonz: Thanks, I folllowed the wiki article. I got the share to show up on my mac but when I try to access it it give me an error. I did not compile the netatalk as I'm on the local network. I just apt-get'ed netatalk.

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
I believe I did "apt-get install avahi-daemon" and have it working but I don't remember the exact details.

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
@toolbox: Yes, I also added avahi-daemon and dbus. They both are running fine when doing ps aux. Could not find any errors in any logs...

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
stupid question, you have smb.service in /etc/avahi/services as described in http://dns323.kood.org/howto:mac_osx_users ?

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
@toolbox: I don't, should I? What is the connection between SMB and AFP. Right now I have SMB turned on in the web admin interface. Could there be a collision somehow? I not sure I grasp everything with AFP. The problem I having is that the two wiki articles are almost the same and I'm not sure which one to use. Right now I think I tried both of them. With no real luck

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
I am newbie on this so I can't answer your question but I can share some of my observations.
For my setup, I have smb enabled from the web admin interface and I don't see any conflicts between it and avahi.
If I don't have avahi-daemon/dbus running with smb.service, my mac will only see two shares (vol 1 & 2) but it takes a long time to access the files. Once I have avahi-daemon/dbus running with smb.service, two more shares show up on my mac and access is much faster. The same speed as if I access the files from my windows machine.
I am not using AFP so I didn't do anything in that area.
BTW: the wiki post mentiones using the DNS-323 for Time Machine disk but you need a hack if you are running Leopard.

Re: Chooted Debian and AFP
@toolbox: thanks for your information. So you only use avahi/dbus to "inform" about the smb service. I'll try that out. I'm still interested in getting AFP running as I need the mac character support for my Aperture backup (they have / in their names, stupid I now)
