Q: I get a "socket: Invalid argument" error when trying to start netatalk
   under Linux. What is causing this?
A: The "appletalk" and "ipddp" kernel modules have to be installed under
   linux for netatalk to function. The appletalk module can be automatically
   loaded by adding the line "alias net-pf-5 appletalk" to the
   /etc/modules.conf file. Issuing the command "modprobe (module)" will
   load the module for the current session.

Q: netatalk works over Appletalk, but my IP connections are refused, even
   though I have enabled them in the configuration files.
A: If tcp_wrappers support is compiled into netatalk, access has to be
   granted in /etc/hosts.allow for netatalk to successfully accept IP
   connections. This can be done by the addition of the line:
     afpd:  127. xxx.xxx.xxx. (whatever other subnets)
