i do know that after screwing with appletalk some that if you init 1 and then
init 3 appletalk still will give you those errors. appletalk also needs to load
in a sequence, like after eth0 or what have you. and also make sure that
shadowed passwords has been taken care of becuase they will not be able to
login. make sure you have defined the network device eth0 in atalkd.conf. also
make sure you do have the tables below in your /etc/services.
