Curious.  I used the netatalk+asun from the Red Hat site on my Red Hat 6.0
system, and I was also unable to work as anything but guest *using my IIgs*.
Using a Quadra 650, I was able to log in to Linux as a user.

This suggests that the problem isn't with the installation, but rather with
the authentication protocols that the IIgs supports.

I had better luck with Win NT4 SP5 (except, of course, for the part where
it blue-screens), but Windows 2000 RC1 wouldn't allow non-guest access.
