The software is now almost 20 years old, so it would not surprise me if permission would be granted. Original Maintainers (usually from Debian): Debian Netatalk team (Mail Archive) Jonas. I'm happy to ask for permission to upload the source on GitHub. netatalk3.1.12ds-4.dsc netatalk3.1. netatalk3.1. Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers (Mail Archive) Please consider filing a bug or asking a question via Launchpad before contacting the maintainer directly. If it turns out that we need UAR, please let me know. I have therefore deleted "cap.zip" from as it included all the tools.
#Netatalk 3.x ubuntu license#
The license says that "UAR may NOT be publicly redistributed … without the permission of the copyright owner". For the FTP download link see the website above. EADME.html "CAP with UAR provides a similar functionality to CAP in Native EtherTalk mode, but on a wider variety of host types." So in case UAB (included in CAP for Native EtherTalk – which we need 'cause for wired networks we all use ethernet nowadays) doesn't work on OS X, UAR might be an alternative. These should not be needed for our purposes (simple networking and printing). The original download of CAP from the FTP server also included a number of tools to be used with CAP.

Maybe it will be possible for someone else to spend time on this in the near future.Īfter checking the license information of the different parties formerly involved in CAP, I have now set up the repository on GitHub. For anyone interested: I have zipped the files and uploaded to. It was dead slow, so downloading ~17 MB must have taken an hour or so. Īt time of writing this post none of the servers worked. FTP-server addresses for download is provided at. It says DDP is "essentially completed, but some minor parts missing". I suppose things were finished in 6.0.ĮDIT: The file is named "cap50.readme", but its content is the one of version 6.0. When that list got published some stuff was not fully finished. P50.README there's a TODO list (towards the end of the page) that mentions DDP to be included. But as I didn't know what I was doing I ended up with an "empty installation" error (just as I did with Netatalk one week ago).Īt. I had nothing to loose, so I tried it with Homebrew.
#Netatalk 3.x ubuntu full#
But as the full source code is available I wonder whether it could be compiled into something that can be installed on present versions of OS X. However, it seems that CAP (Columbia AppleTalk Package) does provide DDP.ĬAP is actually quite old and hasn't been updated since years, final version being 6.0. 2.5.tar.gz and within that /doc/README.AppleTalk for reference. As OS X kernels don't have that anymore since Snow Leopard (just as almost every recent version of the numerous UNIX and UNIX-like systems, as it seems), Netatalk (also version 2.2.5 if used on SL and up) can only operate via TCP/IP. Netatalk itself never included DDP but relied on the system kernel to provide it. That part is DDP, which has been substituted for TCP/IP. I now understand that information on Netatalk is referring to 'AppleTalk' as exactly that part of the protocol stack that has been removed from OS X since version 10.6. Well, I confused something (as I do more often … ): The parts of the former AppleTalk stack that are still used nowadays – AFP for example – are not referred to as AppleTalk anymore.
