I heard that there exists a version for NetBSD 0.9, but it is buggy,
not yet "public" and so could be discounted. I believe the netatalk
team want to fix it up and merge it into the core development path,
presumably also making it work with NetBSD 1.0.
Another port is for the RS/6K - expected by July'95. I wouldn't
expect the working NetBSD version before then either.
The man who knows all the answers is <wesley.craig@umich.edu>.
Anyway, I'm a big fan of netatalk, and will not even consider using
any operating system on which I cannot run it. (Another reason for
sticking with Solaris 1!)
Cheers,
