The kernel driver is only a little bit of what you need. To run as an
appleshare server you also need the netatalk package which can be obtained
from:

terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu:/unix/netatalk/netatalk-1.3.3.tar.gz

If you're running redhat, there's also an RPM of it available as:
	netatalk-1.3.3-7.i386.rpm
In the ftp.redhat.com:/pub/redhat/contrib/RPMS or an appropriate mirror.
