netatalk.conf(5)

NAME
netatalk.conf - Configuration file used by netatalk(8) to determine its general configuration

DESCRIPTION
/usr/local/etc/netatalk.conf is the configuration file used by afpd to determine what portions of the file system will be shared via Appletalk, as well as their behaviors. Any line not prefixed with # is interpreted. The configuration lines are composed like:

    option = value

The possible options and their meanings are:

AFPD_GUEST
    Sets the id of the guest user to a local user on the system.

AFPD_MAX_CLIENTS
    Sets the maximum number of clients that can simultaneously connect to the server.

AFPD_RUN
    Enables the afpd daemon if set to "yes". This should be enabled if you are planning on using netatalk as a file server.

AFPD_UAM_LIST
    Sets the default UAMs for afpd (and papd, if printer authentication is compiled in) to use. Example: AFPD_UAMLIST="-U uams_guest.so,uams_randnum.so"

ATALK_BGROUND
    "yes" will set netatalk to initialize in the background, and "no" will cause normal initialization.

ATALK_NAME
    Sets the machines' Appletalk name.

ATALK_ZONE
    Sets the machines' Appletalk zone.

ATALKD_RUN
    Enables the atalkd daemon if set to "yes". This should be enabled if you are planning on providing Appletalk services.

PAPD_RUN
    Enables the papd daemon if set to "yes". This should be enabled if you are planning on using netatalk as a print server.
