Netatalk

[Brogan Ross]

I've looked through the docs for yum and I didn't see anything about 
giving it directions to do a default install.  What do I have to tell 
it??  I've been using    yum install netatalk
and that seems to work fine.  I did that and the YDL showed up in my 
Network browser, but I still got the same message. 

Is it possible this message has something to do with the fact that the 
username is the same on both computers??

Mascarasnake-
    I tried doing a basic install from the tarball, but the service 
doesn't show up in the service configuration.  Even after restart.

why is this so hard.
