This message means that someone else is trying to use your server's
AppleTalk address. If it happens during boot, this is not a problem,
as the server will pick a new address. If a Mac "steals" the server's
address after afpd is up, then the server could becomes invisible.
This ought to only happen if the network become partitioned, e.g. a hub
is power-cycled.
