I used Samba for PC's and Netatalk for Macintosh. The NIC's are the same brad
in the PC's and Macintosh (Allied Telesyn 2500TX). It works very nice with a
10 Mbps in the server.
I have 5 computers with AT2500 in it doing the same thing. It's very odd.

First I've compiled with UP option. It has the problems described in the first
e-mail.
Then, after I saw a warning in the README file that for Caldera 2.3
distribution you may need to use the SMP option even if you have 1 processor.

Now I put in the server a 10 Mbps card and everything is perfect. What shall I
do?
