[Netatalk-devel] bad function 7A

[<rya...@sh...>]

Hello List,

Netatalk is disconnecting homedirectory connections everytime the OSX client goes to sleep.  I came
across a post (attached below) outlining the issue.  I explained the problem to the mac techs and
advised them to disable sleep on the client as a workaround.

They did not like this idea since they have a significant number of machines on campus.  They may
push for another afp app that supports reconnect on wake.

Can someone please explain the problem in more detail?
Any idea on when this operation will be supported?

much appreciated,
