Looks like you cannot see an appletalk router and probably do not have a
seed router (an appletalk router that establishes zones). No seed router
=> no zones and nothing to return zone info. Do you see zones in the Mac
Chooser?

You can set up netatalk as a seed router to create zones, but not knowing
your network topology I hesitate to explain how.
