Netatalk docker container

Here's my fork of a netatalk server in a docker container:

https://github.com/unxmaal/docker-netatalk

This will let you run an Apple File Sharing server via container, without having to install or configure netatalk.

It can also act as (and broadcast as) a Time Machine server for a local network.

If you have docker running on a system (Linux, Mac, whatever):



To do:

  • move compilation steps into independent script
  • move single container in Dockerfile to several interstitial containers
  • move active running processes into per-process containers
  • add OpenShift templates

Very cool! I might take a look at forking this sometime and making a docker container for the Netatalk 2.2.x series (For legacy DDP networking support.)

Aha. Yes should contain Netatalk 2.2.x to be useful for older Macintosh. And I think there will be the normal catch with macipgw. Won’t run on a standard kernel.
