Re: [Netatalk-admins] 2 Nics, 2 subnets, Chooser in only one.

[Jamie M. <ja...@li...>]

Hmm I tried that and still no luck. Heres what my afpd.conf looks like


"MVMS_Student" -ipaddr 172.16.112.80 -ddpaddr 65280.198 -transall -uamlist
uams_guest.so,uams_clrtxt.so,uams_dhx.so -nosavepassword -admingroup admin

"NHS_Student"  -ipaddr 172.16.96.80 -transall -uamlist
uams_guest.so,uams_clrtxt.so,uams_dhx.so -nosavepassword -admingroup admin

I ever looked at the ddpaddr assigned to eth0 and added that to the
MVStudent server thinking that would help bind ddp to that nic...
unfortunately it didn't work.

For some reason its like appletalk doesn't want to run on both NICS.. Like I
said if I put only eth0 in the atalkd.conf it works ok. But if I put both
nics or leave atalkd.conf blank. Only eth1 will show up in the chooser.

My brain hurts HAHA! - Jamie
