Install Netatalk

A binary netatalk3 port exists for OpenBSD (despite the name, it packages netatalk 4 at the time of writing.)

Ex. (with root privileges)

pkg_add -I netatalk3

For building and installing from source yourself, for instance to get a newer version, follow the guides linked here.

Run

Netatalk 3.2 and later ships with an OpenBSD init script.

Enable and start the service

rcctl -d enable netatalk
rcctl -d start netatalk
