[wplug] Mounting Mac HDD?

[Doug Green]

I use appletalk networking at work between linux and Mac. First, in
order to mount remote apple HDDs you must have a shared file on your
HDD. I dunno why, but that's what the docs say. Second, it's "afpmount"
that you use. I forget the syntax, but again, it's in the Netatalk docs.
