Netatalk is known to run on these operating systems:

$> ./configure [options]
26
----------------------------------------------------------------
29
A. Download a binary. Several Linux distributions support netatalk
30
with a package. There are also Deb's and RPM packages available on the
31
the Netatalk Sourceforge
32
site. (http://sourceforge.net/projects/netatalk/)
34
B. Download the tarball. There are tar.gz and tar.bz2 files available
35
for download and compiling.
36
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/netatalk/)
38
C. Anonymous CVS. Downloading of the CVS source can be done quickly
41
1. make sure you have cvs installed.
43
should produce a path to cvs.
45
2. if you don't have one make a source directory. Mine is
46
~lance/src/working/ cd to this directory.
48
3. Authenticate yourself with your local cvs and the remote cvs: (all
52
-d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.netatalk.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/netatalk \
55
Just hit enter for the password for the anonymous user.
57
4. Now that both machines know who you are, get the source: (all one
61
-d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.netatalk.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/netatalk \
64
This tells cvs what compression, (-z3) what protocol, repository and
65
where the source is (-d:protocol:host:path) what to do (co is an alias
66
for checkout) and what (netatalk) module.
68
This will create a netatalk directory and download a complete and
69
fresh copy of the netatalk source
72
----------------------------------------------------------------
74
1. ./autogen.sh (Not necessary for a release tarball.)
75
This shell script runs libtoolize, aclocal, autoheader, automake and
76
autoconf. This sets up all the conditions for the next step. You may
77
or may not have to do this. If you downloaded a release tarball, or if
78
your download contains a ./configure file then this has already been
81
----------------------------------------------------------------
84
This step reads the options to the ./configure program and checks your
85
system against the requirements of those options. It generally fails
86
if your system doesn't meet the requirements. You should read the
87
DEVELOPER file because some of these options require external sources
88
to function correctly. (PAM, OpenSSL, Berkeley DB, TCP Wrappers, etc).
90
Netatalk options to the ./configure script: Use ./configure --help for
93
--disable-admin-group: disable admin group (default on),
95
--disable-ddp: disable DDP support (AppleTalk),
97
--enable-debug: enable debugging messages in syslog,
99
--enable-dropkludge: enable the experimental dropbox fix
102
--with-bdb=PATH: specify path to Berkeley DB installation,
104
--with-did=[scheme]: set DID scheme (cnid,last),
105
CNID is a new scheme using Berkeley DB files to store a
106
per-volume cnid database persistently.
108
The last DID scheme recreates version 37b behaviour where
109
directory id's are incrementally calculated versus the new
110
hash method. Unfortunately for machines that have a lot of
111
devices, and/or a lot of inodes the hash can fail with
112
multiple directories resolving to the same DID.
114
--with-message-dir=path: path to message files [default is DISABLED],
116
--enable-srvloc: Turn on Server Location Protocol support,
118
--with-pam: enable pluggable authentication modules support,
119
PAM provides a flexible mechanism for authenticating
120
users. PAM was invented by SUN Microsystems.
122
Linux-PAM is a suite of shared libraries that enable the local
123
system administrator to choose how applications authenticate users.
124
You can get the Linux PAM documentation and sources from
125
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/
127
--with-shadow: enable shadow password support,
129
--disable-shell-check: disable checking for a valid shell,
131
--with-flock-locks: enable flock locks support,
133
--with-tcp-wrappers: enable TCP wrappers support.
134
Wietse Venema's network logger, also known as TCPD or
135
LOG_TCP. These programs log the client host name of incoming
136
telnet, ftp, rsh, rlogin, finger etc. requests. Security
137
options are: access control per host, domain and/or service;
138
detection of host name spoofing or host address spoofing;
139
booby traps to implement an early-warning system. TCP
140
Wrappers can be gotten at
141
ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/pub/security/
143
--with-ssl-dir=[PATH]: specify path to OpenSSL installation.
144
NOTE: This is dependent on the same directory layout as the
145
source distribution of Openssl. That is: ./include/ and
146
./lib/ to be on the same level. Many .rpm formats do not
147
have their files laid out in this format.
148
The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a
149
robust, commercial-grade, full-featured, and Open Source
150
toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3)
151
and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a
152
full-strength general purpose cryptography library.
153
This is required to enable DHX login support, which
154
will encrypt all of the passwords being sent across the
155
connection. (Some old mac clients don't support this, check
156
the FAQ for the section on AppleShare clients.)
157
Check to see if your unix has OpenSSL already, or
158
get everything at http://www.openssl.org/
160
--with-uams-path=path: path to UAMs [default=PKGCONF/uams]
162
--enable-fhs: use Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) compatibility
164
--enable-pgp-uam: enable build of PGP UAM module
166
--enable-krb4-uam: enable build of Kerberos v4 UAM module
168
--enable-overwrite: Overwrite configuration files in PKGCONFDIR
170
----------------------------------------------------------------
174
Compile all of the programs.
175
Note: GNU make is required to build netatalk.
177
----------------------------------------------------------------
179
4. make install Install the programs, scripts and man pages in the
180
places specified by the ./configure process.
