Just to keep the information flowing... Someone did the hardware part of this before I have gotten around to it. See the A2Pico project: https://github.com/oliverschmidt/a2pico

Has anyone tried using TashRouter to router between a local EtherTalk network and GlobalTalk instead of using Apple Internet Router? Edit: I'm not sure if the AIR "IP Tunnel" feature is supported in TashRouter. A quick look indicates it is not, and would have to be built as a new port type in...

Thanks! I am, though time is limited for my vintage networking at the moment as a young child seems to do that. I actually did run across the TashRouter project recently and appreciate all your work on that, it looks awesome!

Well the files are being held on one Linux server, and I'm running netatalk 2.x on a second Linux server. My desire is to keep the files on my primary fileserver as it's well backed up, etc. I just can't run netatalk on there because it is a lxc container and can't run strange kernel modules. I...

2.2 because I need EtherTalk support for my vintage collection. I have not tried alternative ea settings which I could play with for testing but one of the points is to continue using an old netatalk share from 10 years ago which already has a lot of data stored in the .AppleDouble format so...

bumping my original question to see if anyone has any ideas on why netatalk would have an issue writing to a mounted SMB/CIFS share or workarounds which would allow the underlying storage to be on a different system.

No, I've heard concerns about it in the past though. It does seem like something bound to be cut at some point in the future though as it's a very niche thing. It just seems unwise to rely on it being there and working indefinitely. Couldn't such a DDP server be written? I wasn't thinking of...

Due to my particular system topology I would like to run netatalk on a different system than where the files are actually located. I was hoping that I could use an SMB/CIFS share on the fileserver which I could then mount to a directory on the netatalk machine and use netatalk to share... No...

I played SC2K only on PC. Does the Mac version not have the cheat codes that open up a Debug menu which you can use to activate everything and continue adding money? Just something you type into the game? I think depending on version it was OIVAIZAMIR or PRISCILLA on the PC version. I have an...

I think, though I will let others chime in that an Appletalk kernel module is required so I don't think it would work. Truthfully with plentiful RAM and free VMs these days it's so easy to spin up a VM that I wouldn't bother running it on anything other than Linux. I do wonder though, given...

Mea culpa for not finding the old official 2.2 docs with that information. I'm too used to directions in readme files I guess. :)

I just so happen need to get Netatalk running again...the last time I needed it I could still get the 2.2 version pre-built. My Linux build skills leave something to be desired but I think I'm sort of bumbling my way through it... It would be awesome to get some better build directions. In...

I have a bunch of IIci's with power supplies that need recapping. Before I tear one open to put together a list, does anyone have a list of caps needed for IIci power supplies? Even better if it is a DigiKey/Mouser cart...

I'm toying with the idea of designing a card for the Apple II which is super programmable/flexible with the idea that it could emulate a bunch of other peripherals/cards such as: Disk II, SmartPort/ProDos HDD, Serial, Parallel, Apple II Workstation (EtherTalk w/ network booting), Printers, etc...

For those who haven't seen it this interesting project popped up on my radar recently. LadyAda is porting greaseweazle/fluxengine to be Arduino libraries so they can more easily be built with a variety of microcontrollers. Specifically they already have it running on RP2040 hardware. Perhaps...
