I'm using SuSE 6.4 and I'll I had to do is install netatalk. The
configuration wasn't too hard either. You have to use short passwords 8
or less chars on the version I use. I haven't had any problems with it
yet. There probably are more knowledgable people on this list but I
could look at config files etc. if you need help after you get it
running.
