1 .TH atalkd.conf 5 22\ September\ 2000 "Netatalk 2.0-alpha1"
3 atalkd.conf \- Configuration file used by atalkd(8) to determine the interfaces used by the master Netatalk daemon
5 \fI:ETCDIR:/atalkd.conf\fR is the
6 configuration file used by atalkd to configure the Appletalk interfaces
9 Any line not prefixed with \fI#\fR is
10 interpreted. The configuration lines are composed like:
12 \fIInterface\fR \fI[\fR
15 The simplest case is to have either no atalkd.conf, or to have one
16 that has no active lines. In this case, atalkd should auto\-discover the
17 local interfaces on the machine. Please note that you cannot split lines.
19 The interface is the network interface that this to work over, such
20 as \fIeth0\fR for Linux, or \fIle0\fR
23 The possible options and their meanings are:
25 \fB\-addr \fInet.node\fB\fR
26 Allows specification of the net and node numbers for this
27 interface, specified in Appletalk numbering format (example:
31 Disables Appletalk routing. It is the opposite of
34 \fB\-net first[\-last]\fR
35 Allows the available net to be set, optionally as a range.
37 \fB\-noallmulti\fR (linux only)
38 On linux the interfaces, atalkd uses, are set to ALLMULTI by default
39 caused by countless NICs having problems without being forced into this mode
40 (some even don't work with allmulti set). In case, you've a NIC known to
41 support multicasts properly, you might want to set this option causing less
42 packets to be processed
44 \fB\-phase ( 1 | 2 )\fR
45 Specifies the Appletalk phase that this interface is to use
46 (either Phase 1 or Phase 2).
49 Like \fB\-seed\fR, but allows single interface
50 routing. It is the opposite of \fB\-dontroute\fR.
53 The seed option only works if you have multiple interfaces. It
54 also causes all missing arguments to be automagically configured
57 \fB\-zone \fIzonename\fB\fR
58 Specifies a specific zone that this interface should appear on
59 (example: \fB\-zone "Parking Lot"\fR). Please note
60 that zones with spaces and other special characters should be
61 enclosed in parentheses.
