NETATALK(8)		 Netatalk AFP Fileserver Manual 	     NETATALK(8)

Name
     netatalk -- Netatalk AFP server service controller daemon

Synopsis
     netatalk [-F configfile]

     netatalk [-v | -V]

Description
     netatalk  is the daemon used to control the Netatalk AFP file server, which
     is made up of multiple forking daemons.  For most deployments you would use
     netatalk for centralized control rather than launching  and  stopping  each
     daemon  individually.  The netatalk daemon is normally started at boot time
     by an init system.

     The controller daemon will launch the AFP daemon afpd  and  the  CNID  meta
     daemon  cnid_metad. The latter will in turn launch the CNID database daemon
     cnid_dbd.

     The configurations of all four daemons are managed in a  single  configura-
     tion file called afp.conf.

Options
     -d

	    Do not disassociate daemon from terminal.

     -F configfile

	    Specifies the configuration file to use.

     -v | -V

	    Print version information and exit.

Signals
     SIGTERM

	    Stop the Netatalk AFP and CNID daemons.

     SIGHUP

	    Sending a SIGHUP will cause the Netatalk AFP and CNID daemons to re-
	    load their configurations from afp.conf.

Files
     afp.conf

	    configuration file used by netatalk(8), afpd(8) and cnid_metad(8)
