Notes
- This configuration works for both Netatalk 3.x and 4.x.
- The first UAM is used for Mac OS X. The second is used for Mac OS 9.
- You probably shouldn't serve this on the public internet.
- If you need to use the other UAMs, some will require your Unix password to be eight or fewer characters in length, and the others will need to use passwords set through
afppasswd. - Don't use the guest UAM if you want to be able to write to anything.
- On Classic Mac OS, if using a password UAM, do not save anything to the user keychain. Whatever value gets stored there seems to become invalidated on next login.
