i have a small net with windoze and 2 macs (1 power pc, 1 imac), it has 2
segments (10 Mbit and 100 Mbit) connected via linux router. (one mac on each
segment). I'd like to use netatalk to route aplletalk, so:
1) when I put in atalkd.conf ONLY eth0 OR eth1, it works fine on one segment
(one mac can see the server)
2) when I put there:
eth1 -seed -net 65280 -addr 65280.10 -zone "gm"
eth0 -seed -net 65270 -addr 65270.15 -zone "gm"
(the powerpc mac has address 65280.25 and is on eth1, the imac has 65270.24
and is on eth0), the first surprising thing for me was that it didn't work
if I put eth0 first, because afpd started always on 65280.10 and the imac
(65270.24) could'n connect. If I put eth1 first, afpd starts on 65270.15 and
imac connects ok, and the power pc mac too, but after (about) 60 seconds it
(powerpc) says "appletalk has been disconnected" and when I want to connect
again, I must change its appletalk address (for example to 65280.26) and
find the router again. Then it repeats.
I tried to change everything in the conf file (divide it into separate zones
and so on), but I could'n get it working.
Doesn't anybody here know what to do ?
Thanks
Tomas Pluskal
