amazing, thank you so much for this initiative!

this is truly helpful, having a properly searchable version of this documentation will be handy when working with AppleTalk code – I will certainly make use of it in the future we have a similar but different challenge with the Apple Filing Protocol Reference document, which is the...

netatalk 4.5.0 beta is now available for adventurous users we have introduced advanced ARC cache and a wide range of deep optimizations that speed up file operations, especially noticeably when you enumerate a large number of files, i.e. when browsing a remote volume see the new manual chapter...

ah pardon, I assumed you were the original author of the proxy! one thing you could do it to fork the project on GitHub, then publish your binary Windows builds there... just a tip

GitHub allows you create Releases where you can attach binary builds for Windows and other platforms; this is generally preferred and appreciated by the community since this makes it easier to trace source code to the binary, and a level of confidence that you're not installing malware from a...

what is the difference between the code in the zip file on archive.org and your GitHub repo?

The SQLite backend is flagged as stable as of v4.4.0! It is truly the future-proof option. Debian for instance has flagged Berkeley DB for removal in Debian Duke in... 2029 ^^; Edit: I wrote a migration guide a while ago during the beta test phase.

Thank you for the sentiment, I will certainly let you know if/when the project opens up for donations. :) As NJRoadfan points out, the original roadmap proposal has been largely achieved (not least thanks to his contributions). What remains of the original roadmap is to rewrite the indexed...

This was indeed very painless, the code built on the first try on my MacBook Pro M1 running Asahi Linux!

Since I started dual boot Asahi Linux / Fedora Remix and KDE on my MacBook Pro M1, I found out the hard way that KDE file managers doesn't speak AFP natively (unlike GNOME). A little while ago I was able to modernize the afpfs-ng AFP client enough that it became possible to use libfuse3 to mount...

Very cool, thank you for publishing your work! Do you have any pointers for a Rust n00b how to set up a build environment for this project? Happy to do my own research if you say it's straight-forward. :)

That's right, you can use any of the device model codes defined in the macOS system file /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Info.plist For instance, if you want to impersonate a Trashcan Mac Pro you can use the code "MacPro6,1"

In AppleTalk you register services (file services, print services, time services) with NBP and create routing tables with RTMP, for instance, which is part of what atalkd does and what this project will do as well. This is required to make a modern computer part of an AppleTalk network. A high...

Netatalk is indeed primarily an AFP server, but it comes bundled with the atalkd daemon that does AppleTalk routing, name registration, zone lookup, AEP (aecho) pings, etc. And then papd / pap / papstatus that handles everything PAP printing. Just sayin' At any rate, it's great to see a fresh...

Check the INSTALL.md file for the requirements. afpfs-ng can work with most AFP servers including netatalk but there’s no direct dependency between the two.
