This has come up a couple times before. Here's some questions:
1) Did you compile with PAM support? Though Solaris ships with PAM and
Sun initiated PAM, netatalk doesn't seem to support PAM on Solaris.
Try recompiling w/o PAM (comment out PAM in the toplevel Makefile).
2) Does the user in question have a shell listed in /etc/shells?
If neither of these helps you, please further provide the following
info.
* What version of Solaris are we talking about (2.what or is it
Solaris 7; Sparc, Ultrasparc or Intel; 32-bit or 64-bit)?
* What authentication are you using: cleartext, randnum, rand2num,
kerberos? (If you're not sure, the Mac should be telling you when
you provide the name and password).
