[ydl-gen] atalk or netatalk

[Derick Centeno]

Hi Rev:
This is just a guess, but the key is the Systems Preferences panel in 
OS X.

First, once it is open select which Network you have operational, that 
is which kind of network are you actually using.  Then check the pop-up 
options (Network Status) according to your selection and check that 
your options match the details of your network.  Let's say you select 
Built-in Ethernet, then you can see the options under that category 
which include TCP/IP, PPPoE, and so on.  I use Airport continuously as 
my laptop includes Airport Extreme and my entire home environment is 
running on a Netgear wireless router which itself is connected to a DSL 
router which has a hardware firewall (for more on Stingray Hardware 
Firewall see, http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/accessories/75f3/) 
between the incoming DSL line and the wireless router.  If all that 
checks out, and ok.  Otherwise, also remember to check cable 
connections and connectors, etc.; ready for wireless yet?

Next within System Preferences, select Sharing and select those options 
you choose to Share with your Linux box.  Then click upon Firewall and 
choose which services you all the Linux box to use on OS X through the 
Firewall.  Meanwhile, if you've the hardware firewall I recommended if 
you make a mistake here not to worry because your entire system both 
the Linux box and the Mac OS X box will be behind the firewall which 
cannot be hacked, spooked, spiffed or whatever.

Check Apple's references and Help systems for more details regarding 
all these options.

Best wishes ....
