![]() ![]() Why can’t it allocate memory? I wondered if it was something specific to this particular machine. Modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'appletalk': Cannot allocate memoryĪha! There’s the real problem. I tried some Googling and noticed that recently AppleTalk had been patched so that you can’t create raw sockets without the CAP_NET_RAW capability, so I fiddled with setcap to set that capability on the atalkd binary, but that didn’t seem to fix anything, so I undid all the capability changes I tested.Īfter further experimentation, I realized that the appletalk kernel module wasn’t being loaded: lsmod | grep I tried to load it myself: sudo modprobe appletalk Maybe I needed to reapply the patch? But no, the netatalk binary hadn’t been updated. I had already needed to manually patch the netatalk binary due to another bug. What could have possibly changed? I was keeping up to date with all of my Ubuntu updates.

Why won’t netatalk start? systemctl status rvice See "systemctl status rvice" and "journalctl -xe" for details. Job for rvice failed because the control process exited with error code. Hmmm….why wouldn’t atalkd be running? I went ahead and tried to restart netatalk: sudo service netatalk restart ps ax | grep atalkdģ351 pts/0 R+ 0:00 grep -color=auto atalkd I checked out the server, and noticed that atalkd wasn’t running. Support for AppleTalk was removed in version 3.x, so that’s why I’m still using 2.x. This allows it to work with really old classic Macs that don’t even have a TCP/IP stack installed. Version 2.x, which I use, supports the ancient AppleTalk protocol. It allows other operating systems to act as Mac file servers. If you’re not familiar with netatalk, it’s an implementation of Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) that runs on Unix-like operating systems such as Linux and NetBSD. I was looking at one of my classic Macs a few weeks ago, and noticed that my Ubuntu 18.04 netatalk server wasn’t showing up in the Chooser anymore.
