−f
delete and recreate CNID database
−F
location of the afp.conf config file
−s
scan volume: treat the volume as read only and don't perform any filesystem modifications
−t

−u
username for use with AFP volumes using user variable $u
−v
verbose
−V
display version info
The CNID backends maintains name to ID mappings. If you change a filename outside afpd(8) (shell, samba), the CNID database will not reflect that change. Netatalk tries to recover from such inconsistencies as gracefully as possible.
