The simplest case is to have either no atalkd.conf, or to have one that has no active lines. In this case, atalkd should auto-discover the local interfaces on the machine. Please note that you cannot split lines.
The interface is the network interface that this to work over, such as eth0 for Linux, or le0 for Sun.
Allows specification of the net and node numbers for this interface, specified in Appletalk numbering format (example: -addr 66.6).
Disables Appletalk routing. It is the opposite of -router.
Allows the available net to be set, optionally as a range.
Specifies the Appletalk phase that this interface is to use (either Phase 1 or Phase 2).
Like -seed, but allows single interface routing. It is the opposite of -dontroute.
The seed option only works if you have multiple interfaces. It also causes all missing arguments to be automagically configured from the network.
Specifies a specific zone that this interface should appear on (example: -zone "Parking Lot"). Please note that zones with spaces and other special characters should be enclosed in parentheses.
