Client is an iMac running OS9.2. Clearing PRAM changed some things but
the name thing wasn't one of them. I even tried forcing the name to be
the "Kendon Elem.Server" sting in afpd.conf and was mildly surprised to
find that I still have the same problem. I still don't know where that
name string is coming from but now I'm not sure how much it has to do
with the problem.
