I can't compile netatalk-1.4b3, and atalkd in the asun 2.1.3 version
just kernel oopes about the same time as a Macintosh tries to talk to it
(DDP). It just hangs when a Mac tries to connect with ASIP (by hang, I
mean sit there do nothing and go zombie).

That code compiles and runs fine under 2.0.36... so I'm faced with the
decision of "do I hack kernel, or do I revert to the old kernel".

Does anyone actually have netatalk running on a 2.2.x kernel?
