HFS: It seems we can mount only local harddrives, floppies with this, Is that 
so? I want to mount the Mac Volume on network and when  i ran "nbplkup" i 
came to notice that even my Mac is running an AFP server, so now can i use my 
linux box as apple client which is running netatalk. 
or is that i can mount network mac volumes also with hfs? If so let me the 
syntax, i used the same mount command as mount -t hfs -o 'fork=netatalk' 
ipofmac:/ /MacVol . But that doesnt work? so hfs is a freind of network mac?

Any Suggestions,
Thanks,
