Mario,
That is correct (at least on 4.0), and the appletalk kernel modules are not built, so you will have to build a custom kernel to use it. Once it the kernel is recompiled and appletalk is compiled, it works like a champ.
Netatalk is not hard to compile.

Hi,
Is it from my eyes, or Centos (or for that matters, RHEL) doesn't include netatalk ????
If not, does it bring something else for the same porpous ?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
So, RedHat does not only includes netatalk. It lacks support for it in the kernel.

What's the best way to recompile the currrent kernel to support netatalk ?
1 - make menuconfig && make dep && make bzimage && make modules && make modules_install && make install ?
2 - Hack the kernel SRPM and rpm -Uvh it ?
Netatalk is not hard to compile.
Done that. I work with it since the begining of times.

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin- guide/ch-custom-kernel.html
however, this version is for RHEL3 (and actually it first appeared in the manuals for 7.x, and hasn't been much updated, but it's still a reasonably good documentation of the Red Hat Way to recompile a kernel).
there does not seem to be an equivalent doc in the RHEL4 manuals, and the files referenced in the RHEL3 doc aren't in the same places (or aren't there at all), so i don't know how helpful this will be.

'make dep' is obsolete for 2.6. Not sure about 2.4.

The RHN applet won't complain at you if you do it this way, whereas it will if you do it the old-fashioned way.

Or for simplicity 'make [all] modules_install'. The default make setting compiles modules as well.
