29 provides an AppleTalk Filing Protocol (AFP) interface to the Unix file system\&. It is normally started at boot time from /etc/rc\&.
31 The list of volumes offered to the user is generated from
32 :ETCDIR:/AppleVolumes\&.system
34 :ETCDIR:/AppleVolumes\&.default,
36 ~/\&.AppleVolumes\&. The
38 files is used to specify volumes to mount and file name extension mappings\&. It is formatted as follows, one specification per line: pathname [ volumename ] \&.extension [ type [ creator ] ] If volumename is unspecified, the last component of pathname is used\&. No two volumes may have the same name\&. If type is unspecified \'????\' is used\&. If creator is unspecified \'UNIX\' is used\&. The extension \'\&.\' sets the default creator and type for otherwise untyped Unix files\&. Blank lines and lines beginning with `#\' are ignored\&.
44 Specifies that the daemon should not fork\&. If netatalk has been configured with
45 \fI\-\-enable\-debug1\fR, a trace of all AFP commands will be written to stdout\&.
50 Prevents clients from saving their passwords\&. (Equivalent to \-\fBnosavepasswd\fR
57 Allows clients to change their passwords\&. (Equivalent to
65 Use DDP (AppleTalk) as transport protocol\&. (Equivalent to
73 Use TCP/IP as transport protocol\&. (Equivalent to
81 Print version information and exit\&.
86 Use a platform specific icon\&. (Equivalent to
92 \-f \fIdefaultvolumes\fR
96 should be read for a list of default volumes to offer, instead of
97 :ETCDIR:/AppleVolumes\&.default\&.
100 \-s \fIsystemvolumes\fR
104 should be read for a list of volume that all users will be offered, instead of
105 :ETCDIR:/AppleVolumes\&.system\&.
112 file first\&. This option causes volume names in the user\'s
114 file to override volume names in the system\'s
116 file\&. The default is to read the system
118 file first\&. Note that this option doesn\'t effect the precendence of filename extension mappings: the user\'s
120 file always has precedence\&.
127 should be used for NBP registration, instead of the first component of the hostname in the local zone\&.
130 \-c \fImaxconnections\fR
132 Specifies the maximum number of connections to allow for this
133 \fBafpd\fR\&. The default is 20\&.
138 Specifies the name of the guest account\&. The default is \'\fInobody\fR\'\&.
143 Specifies the file in which
145 stores its process id\&.
150 Specifies the port to register with when doing AFPoverTCP\&. Defaults to 548\&. (Equivalent to
157 Specifies the login message that will be sent to clients\&. (Equivalent to
165 Specifies the configuration file to use\&. (Defaults to
166 :ETCDIR:/netatalk/afpd\&.conf\&.)
171 Comma\-separated list of UAMs to use for the authentication process\&. (Equivalent to
181 for the creation of folders in Netatalk\&.
185 Signals that are sent to the main
187 process are propagated to the children, so all will be affected\&.
193 to afpd will cause it to reload its configuration files\&.
204 logging for this process\&. The log is sent to fhe file
205 /tmp/afpd\&.PID\&.XXXXXX\&. Sending another
207 will terminate the process\&.
214 process will send the message "The server is going down for maintenance\&." to the client and shut itself down in 5 minutes\&. New connections are not allowed\&. If this is sent to a child afpd, the other children are not affected\&. However, the main process will still exit, disabling all new connections\&.
221 process will look in the message directory configured at build time for a file named message\&.pid\&. For each one found, a the contents will be sent as a message to the associated AFP client\&. The file is removed after the message is sent\&. This should only be sent to a child
224 To shut down a user\'s
226 process it is recommended that
229 be used, except as a last resort, as this may leave the CNID database in an inconsistent state\&. The safe way to terminate an
233 signal and wait for it to die on its own\&.

249 user\'s list of volumes to mount
252 :ETCDIR:/netatalk/msg/message\&.pid
