AFP "Bind IP Address" Error

[siso]

Hi,

I am quite new to Freenas, which I have installed and used successfully with my linux boxes, but I am having an issue with AFP for OS X, as afpd keeps restarting:

Dec 27 21:32:15 freenas netatalk[88569]: Restarting 'afpd' (restarts: 83)
Dec 27 21:32:15 freenas afpd[88726]: dsi_tcp_init: no suitable network config for TCP socket
Dec 27 21:32:15 freenas afpd[88726]: no suitable network address found, use "afp listen" or "afp interfaces"
Dec 27 21:32:15 freenas afpd[88726]: main: no servers configured​

If I try set "Bind IP Address" to bind afpd to 192.168.1.2 using the WebUI (Services --> AFP --> Bind IP Addresses), it fails:

I have looked through /usr/local/libexec/nas/generate_afpd_conf.py, and found out that it configures AFP in /usr/local/etc/afp.conf.

As a temporary fix I have added afp listen = 192.168.1.2 to the Global stanza (see: http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/3.0/htmldocs/afp.conf.5.html), which does the trick:

Dec 27 21:37:14 freenas netatalk[88569]: Restarting 'afpd' (restarts: 382)
Dec 27 21:37:14 freenas afpd[89198]: dsi_tcp_init: no suitable network config for TCP socket

Dec 27 21:37:15 freenas afpd[89199]: Netatalk AFP/TCP listening on 192.168.1.2:548​

Is this an issue with my installation, or need to open a bug?

Thanks,

siso
