Netatalk runs EtherTalk. You must have LAN Emulation set up properly for
two way communication across your ATM Backbone. This will add the few
extra bytes around the Ethernet packets for ATM transmission. Your
Netatalk Servers I assume are transmitting with an ATM network Card, so
just make sure you have LAN Emulation for your network set up properly.
You should speak with your resident Network Engineer about this problem.
