macOS can't write on shared Netatalk AFP server on raspbian

Mon Jan 20, 2020 8:53 pm

I followed this guide to set up AFP on my raspberry pi: https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-afp
But now when connecting from macOS to the afp server, I can connect using my pi username, but I can't copy and write files onto the network AFP drive...
What's wrong?

Thanks

Maybe you can post a copy of your /etc/netatalk/afp.conf file. There might be a clue in there.

TD540,

Yep. It seems that all the lines of the default afp.conf were commented out -- and hence, no shares were being created by default. After a few edits, I've gotten that working. Thanks for you tip.
