Just upgraded to Ubuntu 18 (from 17). Sharing files with Apple Macs on the same network was a breeze with 17 (after apt-geting netatalk). But doing sudo apt-get netatalk just gets me Invalid operation netatalk.



Doing afp://ubuntuname.local on the Mac results in The server may not exist or is unavailable



I'm desperate to get by Linux box to speak to my Macs again. Can someone help? Nothing has changed except I (foolishly?) upgraded both our non-Macs to Ububntu 18.



Any suggestions?



If you want to help with two users on one Ubuntu machine sharing a local folder, please look for my other post.

  • It's invalid since apt or apt-get needs to accept arguments before passing the package name. You can't swap their position; apt netatalk install is invalid while apt install netatalk is valid.
