Strange Netatalk 1.6.4 problem

[Lorenzo]

After a system crash, netatalk started behaving strangley. I could
connect to a share, but nothing would be visible within the share. After
reading I post I found at the SF netatalk section, I removed the db
files from the share, and restarted netatalk. Now I can see the files
and folders within the share, but no one else can. I am owner of the
share and its files and folders, I'm not sure if that makes a difference
or not. Although they are part of a group that has r/w privs on the
share. The log shows this error when they try to connect:
Apr 27 17:16:26 [afpd] [enumerate.c:83]: E:AFPDaemon: adddir: Incorrect
parameters passed to cnid_add

Another odd thing is that if one of the affected users tries to create a
new folder or place a file on the share, they get the error:
"The command could not be completed because of a system error -50"

Which is a parameter error, consistent with the error posted above. But
if I then look at the share, I will see the new folder or file that was
placed there. I've tried upgrading to 2.01 and downgrading to 1.5.3, but
no luck, smae problem. I know netatalk uses berkdb as a backend and I
figure its corrupt, but I have no idea how to fix it.
Anyone have any ideas?
TIA

I fixed it! I had to set the permissions on the share to 2777, delete
the .AppleDB directory and restart netatalk. After restarting netatalk,
I was able to connect and see the files on the share. Then I could
restore the original permissions, but the user needs to r/w to the
.AppleDB directory. BerkDB seems to require that.
Damn, I'm good!
