transall -ipaddr 10.0.0.2 -mimic RackMac For TCP/IP access, you may need to use -ipaddr to specify which IP address to listen from put the Linux server's LAN IP here.

We want to use both AppleShare IP (for modern Macs) and EtherTalk (for the bridge to the Mac 512K), so we specify -transall to enable both transports. The leading dash simply means use the hostname defined in nf. This file defines which transports to use for AFP. NOTE: If you use a bridge, make sure it exists before rc.atalk is started otherwise, this will reset to eth0. You shouldn't need to mess with these settings manually. The first time you start Netatalk, the line will automatically get filled with AppleTalk settings: eth0 -phase 2 -net 0-65534 -addr 65280.62 It should just be a bunch of comments by default.Īdd a single line at the end to specify which network interface to use, such as eth0 for a typical LAN interface, or br0 if your LAN ports are bridged: eth0 This file defines parameters for AppleTalk-over-Ethernet (EtherTalk). You'll need root permission to edit these files.

(The LocalTalk end may briefly flash red when you first connect the power.) Linux Netatalk ConfigurationĮverything you need to configure is under /etc/netatalk. If you're using the Farallon EtherMac iPrint, you should now see green lights at each end of its LED strip. NOTE: If you don't use a switch/hub, you'll need a cross-over Ethernet cable between the bridge and your server.Ĭonnect the power adapter to the LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge.

Insert the RJ11 terminator into one of the PhoneNet adapter's ports.Ĭonnect the RJ11 4-pin cable from the other PhoneNet port to the LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge.Ĭonnect an Ethernet patch cable from the LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge to your LAN switch. NOTE: System 3.3 does not look for LocalTalk on the modem port! Hardware InstallationĬonnect the PhoneNet adapter's DB9 end to the Mac 512K printer port. If you have netatalk 2.2.3 installed in Slackware, I recommend adding netatalk to /etc/slackpkg/blacklist to avoid updating to version 3. NOTE: As of 2019, Slackware now installs netatalk 3.1, which is not compatible with older Macs. I've also heard that Netatalk 2.1.6 works, so try that if you have issues with 2.2.3. If you build it from source, make sure you include DDP EtherTalk support and the ability to use Linux login passwords (/etc/shadow), like so.

So, if your distro does not include Netatalk 2.2.3, you'll need to install it yourself. Netatalk 2.2.5 should work in theory, but when I tried it the shared volumes didn't show up on the Mac 512K. NOTE: Netatalk 3.x does not support EtherTalk. You can install it via: sudo slackpkg install netatalk Slackware Linux 14.1 includes Netatalk 2.2.3 with DDP support. Most Linux distributions include some version of Netatalk in their package management, but you specifically need Netatalk 2.2.3 with DDP (EtherTalk) support enabled.

The Farallon EtherMac iPrint Adapter works perfectly for bridging AppleShare from LocalTalk to Ethernet. Make sure all 4 pins are connected straight-through. This terminator comes with most PhoneNet adapters. DB9 LocalTalk PhoneNet Adapter RJ11 PhoneNet Terminator The Mac 512Ke can use this floppy, or it can use an 800K System 6.0.8 boot floppy that includes AppleShare 2.0.2.

NOTE: This floppy is only required for the Mac 512K most other classic Macs have AppleShare included with their System Software / Mac OS installation. I lacked a suitably old Mac, so found someone on eBay that could make the disk for me.

You might be able to make your own 400K MFS floppy using an old Mac and Disk Copy 4.2.
