How can I get AFP to start? I installed that Ulcpl thingy, but where/what do I use to start AFP? I clicked the second last one, and clicked Start... is that the right one to click? Cuz it's still not connecting....

edit: nevermind... had to "Load" first... working now

I can't get this working on 1.1.2 .. anyone?

Note that if you mount the iphone via AFP the finder leaves a .DS_Store file in every folder you've browsed. At 24Kb a pop, having browsed several directories you end up clogging your flash drive, especially the application partition which is so dire on space.

what is the best way to change the password from alpine to something else ?

Use mobile terminal on your iPhone, and type: passwd

If you don't have the command already on your iPhone, I think you can get it from Erica's Utilities or More BSD.

Right shoot me down for this but how do i know what ip to put in?

Is there a Window version of AFP app available?

Sorry but I laughed when I read this. AFP stands for APPLE file protocol, of course there is no Windows version of an APPLE protocol.

i followed your guide to accessing my iphone through finder, and successfully connected once. i tried to reconnect again and now it wont work. instead of the basic pop-up asking for username and pass, it says registered user or guest. i've tried a million times to put my name and pass in and it tells me its invalid. i've tried goin to ultcl and shutting down the server, then starting it back up to connect, but still..nothing. can someone please help? by the way im running 1.1.4 - thanks to anyone who can help!
