You can do this either via the web GUI or command line. You will also need to make sure that user or users have access to the ZFS folder by setting the ACL. In the NexentaStor web GUI (NMV), make sure your created user has the “unix” option selected. Netatalk, based on how we’ve compiled it, will use the local unix user authentication on the system, and it will grant access to shares based on the ACL of the share. Online 11:09:56 svc:/network/netatalk:default :~/netatalk-3.0.2# svcadm enable netatalk Here’s my configuration to give a working example: Terminal ”man afp.conf” contains everything you need to know, but the options available can be a little overwhelming to someone not familiar with AFP. I will admit the documentation on Netatalk’s website is a little sparse as to what’s available. Now we need to define some shares to serve out over AFP.

To start, we need to fall to a “raw” root shell in NexentaStor. However, that’s for v2, but thankfully v3 is similar. The writeup I pulled from exists on NexentaStor’s wiki. Nice! Also, the feature we want that’s been present since a later version of 2, built-in Time Machine support. The biggest change I can see is that configuration is a lot easier & the CNID backends now go into a database rather than “hidden” folders on the shares themselves. The latest release, v3, looks to have been a big re-write in how Netatalk works.

Netatalk has been around a while, and it’s still going strong.

The recent surge in popularity of the Mac OS has really helped the open source project Netatalk.

Yes, I’m using CrashPlan on NexentaStor as well that’s a future post. I use a combination of Time Machine & CrashPlan for my backups. One of the things I wanted to use all that disk space I have in my ZFS/ESXi All-In-One for is Time Machine Backups for the 3 Macs in my house. So, when installing a lot of stuff using apt, use apt-clone instead of apt-get. That said, one of the great things about apt in Solaris is apt-clone something gets messed up, you can revert your system back leveraging the power of ZFS snapshots. Everything I’ve done to “extend” NexentaStor to my liking has not interfered with the core NMV/NMC functionality. If you want to add on additional functionality, it’s not so hard to do so. That’s one of the reasons I love the project. NexentaStor is NCP ( Nexenta Core Platform) underneath, so you really do have all the power & flexibility of an open unix system.
