netatalk netatalk free and open source file server skip to content home documentation downloads support links netatalk io netatalk free and open source file server netatalk is a free and open source file server that uses the afp protocol the netatalk software runs on a unix like operating system such as linux bsd or macos and allows any computer with an afp client to easily connect with each other and share files on a local network or over the internet the netatalk file server software is light weight performant and portable conforming to the apple filing protocol specification any macos mac os x or classic mac os system can connect to a netatalk file server out of the box since its launch in 1990 netatalk has been leveraged by universities enterprises and home users for collaboration and remote data backup on macs with netatalk any unix like host is able to integrate seamlessly with networked macos systems act as centralized file storage and provide data backup services getting started there are three ways to get started with netatalk install a pre built binary package deploy a container image or build the software yourself from source code knowledge of basic system administration is required including installing packages editing configuration files and starting stopping system services install a binary package for your distribution use your operating system s package manager to install the latest available netatalk package this is the recommended option for most users see repology for a list of known packages deploy a container image the project publishes images on docker hub and ghcr that can be deployed with a container runtime such as docker or podman refer to the container documentation for details on how to configure the container ️ build from source you want to build from source when neither of the previous options are feasible or when you want to do a hardened netatalk deployment with only a subset of features enabled see the getting started guide for instructions how to prepare the build environment and read more about dependencoes in the netatalk manual how to use by default netatalk shares the home directory of each authorized user with a secure authentication method for modern afp clients it is recommended to start and stop the netatalk afp server through your operating systems s init system if you need a different setup for instance sharing a specific directory or allowing very old afp clients access you have to configure the host system and then restart netatalk netatalk has a dizzying amount of options which can be daunting initially the configuration chapter and afp conf page in the netatalk manual are good places to start once netatalk is up and running use an afp client to connect to the file server latest
