Subject: [netatalk-admins] Problem with Unix *LONG* names

Hi there,

the original 1.4b2 afpd seems to not truncate long filenames on Unix (Linux) side to proper length of 32 Bytes for displaying on the Mac via AppleShare, which responds in all favours of errors, beginning with -43 (fnf, harmless) to complete freeze (Sys 7.5.5 and 7.6.1 tested).

If anybody here would be so kind to show how to modify 1.4b2 afpd to support simple truncation, here you can. ;-)

I think simple truncation is okay, I never had files with the first 32 chars unique.
