afp_voluuid.conf - Configuration file used by afpd(8) to specify UUID for Time Machine volume
DESCRIPTION
/etc/netatalk/afp_voluuid.conf is the configuration file used by afpd to specify UUID of Time Machine volume automagically. The
configuration lines are composed like:
"volume name" uuid-string
The first field is volume name. Volume names must be quoted if they contain spaces. The second field is the 36 character hexadecimal ASCII
string representation of a UUID.
The leading spaces and tabs are ignored. Blank lines are ignored. The lines prefixed with # are ignored. The illegal lines are ignored.
Note
This UUID is advertised by Zeroconf in order to provide robust disambiguation of Time Machine volume.
The afpd generates the UUID from random numbers and saves it into afp_voluuid.conf, only when setting "tm" option in AppleVolumes file.
This file should not be thoughtlessly edited and be copied onto another server.
EXAMPLES
Example. afp_voluuid.conf three TM volumes on one netatalk

AFP_SIGNATURE.CONF(5) Netatalk 2.2 AFP_SIGNATURE.CONF(5)NAME
afp_signature.conf - Configuration file used by afpd(8) to specify server signature
DESCRIPTION
/etc/netatalk/afp_signature.conf is the configuration file used by afpd to specify server signature automagically. The configuration lines
are composed like:
"server name" hexa-string
The first field is server name. Server names must be quoted if they contain spaces. The second field is the hexadecimal string of 32
characters for 16-bytes server signature.
The leading spaces and tabs are ignored. Blank lines are ignored. The lines prefixed with # are ignored. The illegal lines are ignored.
Note
Server Signature is unique 16-bytes identifier used to prevent logging on to the same server twice.
Netatalk 2.0 and earlier generated server signature by using gethostid(). There was a problem that another servers have the same
signature because the hostid is not unique enough.
Current netatalk generates the signature from random numbers and saves it into afp_signature.conf. When starting next time, it is read
from this file.
This file should not be thoughtlessly edited and be copied onto another server. If it wants to set the signature intentionally, use the
option "-signature user:xxxx" in afpd.conf. In this case, afp_signature.conf is not used.
EXAMPLES
Example. afp_signature.conf three servers on one netatalk
