Ack - nevermind. I found a suggested systemd unit file in an earlier post. That seems to have done the trick.. Heh - we crossed in the wires. That is working - thanks.

I'm running Tashrouter on an RPi under Debian Bullseye. What is the best approach for making it start automatically at boot?

I have a handful of ISA LocalTalk boards along with a COPS LT-1. At one time there was a Linux driver for the COPS and one could run netatalk on that interface (although not very well).

I'll have to dig through my archives to refresh Ye Olde brain cells. From an FAQ in the late 90s (predating my work): * I can't get PhoneNet PC, MacLan Connect, or Apple ][ AppleTalk to connect to the netatalk fileserver. Netatalk doesn't implement the entire AFP...

Ok, so something different from the capability I added. I can assure you that ProDOS would not interoperate with netatalk before I coded in what I thought was called "short name" support.

That's very strange. I added "short name" support to netatalk in the late 90s in order to get it cooperating with the //e Workstation card. Has that been removed?

Ok, I spun up a Bookworm VM and was able to build Netatalk 4. Tomorrow I'll fire it up and take it for a spin. However, it's NAT'ed out to my network from the VMware 10. so may take some work to get clients talking to it.

That's a voltage adjustment, probably for the +5V line. Don't connect it to a motherboard until properly (re)set! The power supply needs to be checked with loads on the outputs. Maybe someone has a link to a tutorial?

I looked at Bookworm, but am seeing that KDE desktop support is "iffy". I'll take it for a test drive in a VM. Anyway, enough off-topic chatter :)

I know nothing about Docker, but can certainly setup a VMware guest OS for the purpose. I really should start thinking about a new distribution, but I cannot and will not use anything that relies on SNAPs. Philosophy aside, SNAP installs don't work from an NFS mounted home directory.

Unfortunately many of the required packages for Ubuntu build are too new for my environment. Due to persistent breakage I do not upgrade unless forced to by cutoff of security patches. Still on Ubuntu 18.04 here. If/when I upgrade my system I'll be glad to to do some testing.

Heh. Ok, thanks for clarifying. So far everything has been working as advertised!

I have been away from Apples for a bit, but just got back to pickup the thread here again. I notice the latest TashRouter has a new interface called MacvtapPort but still retains the older TapPort. My startup program uses the latter. What is the difference between them? Is there a reason I'd...

Nice work, all! I need to get busy and build a patched kernel for my Tashrouter Pi.

I just pulled the latest code and am pleased to report that Apple 2 clients are still 100% happy!

Doesn't that imply the IIe would have session problems with both? I used it with a FastPath 4 for years before getting my first Gatorbox. Never had a problem. IIRC, it was the FP 5 that never cooperated.

Everything is working fine for me. Spent a boring hour bringing various Apple machines up and down, netbooting, browsing, etc. No problems at all. Here's my first attempt at a dedicated 3d printed case. A lot of hand rework involved to get things fitting correctly. Now to put a gun to my...

I think there are some electrical issues with a direct connection due to the way the tashtalk hat localtalk interface is designed.

A bit tight on time this AM, but SE/30 and IIe are behaving themselves. I'll do some further testing with ethertalk clients this evening. Thanks for the update!

Ah, I think we're talking past each other. Chooser was not the issue. It was the Appletalk control panel. The machine is a 32 MB SE/30 running System 7.5.5. There are a number of things installed, but nothing network related.
