Netatalk was added as a new package. It provides file-sharing services for Apple devices.
Netatalk is an open source software package and is a high-performance and reliable file server for Macintosh computers.
Using Netatalk's AFP 3.3 compliant file-server leads to significantly higher transmission speeds compared with Macs accessing a server via SaMBa/NFS while providing clients with the best possible user experience (full support for Macintosh metadata, flawlessly supporting mixed environments of classic Mac OS and OS X clients) 1
Netatalk is installed with the Pakfire web interface or via the console:
pakfire install netatalk
The main configuration file is /etc/afp.conf. Here is an example. Find out more in the manual linked below.
; ; Netatalk 3.x configuration file ; [Global] ; Global server settings ; [Homes] ; basedir regex = /xxxx ; [My AFP Volume] ; path = /path/to/volume ; [My Time Machine Volume] ; path = /path/to/backup ; time machine = yes
There is no web interface for this Addon. To run this add-on open the client console or terminal and access the IPFire box via SSH.
