I believe that these (OpenDB, AddIcon, AddComments) are all AppleTalk AFP
calls, rather than "normal" calls.  So if you have a volume connected
through LocalTalk and want to roll your own packets.  You might want to
check out "Inside Appletalk" or whatever it is called for more details.

Of course I could be wrong.
