It tells you everything you need to know about : enabling kernal support for appletalk in 1.2.x kernels. I'm running it with : 1.2.8 with no problems. Andrew, thanks. The netatalk package was almost, what I needed. Unfortunately the current version (netatalk-1.3.3) has dropped support for Linux 1.2.X kernels (and it's standard in the 1.3.X kernel :-(), so I still had to muck around and get the kernel modules running. Anyway, a late night on the weekend and it is all going. I've got the kernel modules that work on Linux 1.2.13 if anyone wants them. (The rest of the package was just compile and install.) : Andrew.
