Now that I have #netatalk compiled for the Raspberry Pi, I'm now struggling to get any folder shared and advertised over AppleTalk, or AFP, for that matter. This is for #GlobalTalk.
edit : GOD DAMN IT. The documentation fails to mention that I should be editing THIS file:
/usr/local/etc/afp.conf.
I spent hours editing /etc/netatalk/afp.conf, and thought I was going insane.
I've been over the netatalk documentation multiple times last night. I tried setting log level to "default:debug9" but the journal isn't being spammed with events like I expect. So I don't even know where to start troubleshooting - permissions, an incorrect setting, etc.
The RPi is registered on my AppleTalk network just fine; I can see the device from my AIR Mac. It has a valid network number, and I can send AppleTalk echo packets to it with MacPing Pro (AT, not TCP).
Suggestions?

#netatalk #GlobalTalk - @kylew01@mastodon.social : did you read my latest edit about discovering the location of the actual in-use config file?

@theirongiant@hachyderm.io Is there a premade pi image or do you have to compile it?
