netatalk and old old macintoches

[Shelagh Manton]

Hello,
I cranked up my mother's old old macintosh the other day (os 8.4) and
tried out the netatalk software to speak over the network with it. There
are some files on it we need and the printer cables are missing and the
floppy drive appears to have died. However, I can't get things working at
all and in fact it appears to have b*ggered the partially functional samba
thing we did have working on our network.

Are there any netatalk gurus out there? And maybe while we're at it a
samba guru or two might be useful too!
