[opensuse] Appletalk and more than one Linux box

Hallo,

We have 2 Macs and a number of OpenSUSE boxes on our network.
I have started to set up TimeMachine on the Macs to use the OpenSUSE backup server as destination using AFP (netatalk).
That works fine so far.

But, I would also like to access certain folders on the other Linux desktops from the Macs. The same username is used on the Linux boxes.

As soon as I set up natatalk on another Linux box and I want to connect to it from the Mac, it seems to get confused. The mac shows both Linux machines, but it will show the shares of the first box it connects to for both of them.

Example:

Obelix (openSUSE 11.3 backup system)
AFP shares:
- obelix_andre_timemachine
- obelix_willa_timemachine

Vitalstatistix (openSUSE 11.3 dev workstation)
AFP shares:
- vitalstatistix_andre
- vitalstatistix work

So, if I first connect to Obelix and then to Vitalstatistix, both of them show obelix_andre_timemachine and obelix_willa_timemachine and vice versa if I connect to Vitalstatistix first.

Any idea how I need to set up netatalk so that the Mac will be able to access the shares on both systems?
Or is there something I need to set up on Apple?

I will post to the Apple forums too

Thanks
