Netatalk sharing filename limitation

  • 772

I want to share file from my linux box to OSX clients. I don't want to use SMB !

I'm using netatalk 2.1.2 but apparently there is a filname length limitation :

I've tried "123456789012345678901234567.avi" (31 characters long), and it works but when the filename is >31 char long. Some programs like Quicktime can't open the file.

I've started the share with : 

... -unixcodepage utf8 -maccodepage utf8

Is there any way to make netatalk/afpd to work with filenames longer than 31 char ?

file-sharing afp netatalk

    Apparently it was a issue with netatalk 2.1.2 ! After upgrading to 2.1.3 everything is fine.
