Hi @all,

on a domU Domain runs a netatalk server, but it doesn't work well. I've 
googled now and found that is necessary to enable ALLMULTI on the nic, 
but this don't work in a domU, is there a possibilty?
atalkd sets the ALLMULTI flag on the interface. The equivalent in 
command line is:
        ifconfig eth0 allmulti

This means that this interface must support this flag. This is probably 
not a worry any more, because almost all modern NICs support it.
After atalkd was successfully launched, it adds an EtherTalk address, 
and the ifconfig eth0 output will look like this:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
         inet addr:yy.yy.yy.yy  Bcast:yy.yy.255.255  Mask:255.240.0.0
         EtherTalk Phase 2 addr:65280/197          UP BROADCAST RUNNING 
ALLMULTI MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
