That's absolutly true! One of our clients, an advertising agency, which
has a powerfull Linux server (256MB, 140GB RAID, Fast Ethernet, 25
Mac's, etc.) with "netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.0a18.2-49.i386" will now change
over to Windows NT 4.0 with MacServerIP, because I can't give them
support on some questions coming up when we look together into the
message logfile!!!! I have tried to get answers on SuSE-Support, but
they support everything on Linux except NETATALK. Any question in
mailing lists where still unanswered. And I am not alone with my
problems. I am looking with interrest what the questions in these
mailing lists are, and whenever there is a real problem to solve, there
is no usefull answer. I don't know why the AppleTalk support for Linux
is not pushed more, because it is very fast and easy to configur. But I
can't stay the questions of my clients any longer.

P.S.: I am not a freak how has plenty of time to figure out what's the
best way to do. What I need is a system which I can sell to my clients
to get them away from Micro$oft!
