Be careful with netatalk. That last time I looked apt-get was installing 
version 1.64, which has serious problems with OS X. You need at least 
version 2. 

You have to install this from tarball. I think Samba may be the way to 
go because it's installed by default on OS X. Personally I've not done it.
