Ok - so dumbing it down a little (I'm pretty dumb when it comes to
coding and stuff!) basically this is a warning that an AFP function
has been called by the client that has not been implemented in the
netatalk code yet?

and if you're correct in it relating to FPCatSearch then it's not a
critical "I'm having problems and so to remedt this I'm hosing all
your data!" type error...

?

thanks for the insight... dan.
