Latest 16.1 + the AFP patch (which I think I applied correctly)

Code: Select all
[2030-10-06 00:28:54]   unzip|unzip     fvdw-sl 16.1    cloudbox        /fvdw-sl-16.1-afpfix-remoteshr-11oct15.zip(fvdw-sl-16.1-afpfix-remoteshr-11oct15.tar)  OK

Hi sadfab,

:thumbup So on fvdw-sl firmware side all is Ok.

Maybe you need an explanation and you may have forgotten an action:

To use an afp or a TM share you must :
- enable an afp access on the wanted share (use add/edit share menu)
- enable the afp server (use the main setup menu; afp server tab) (Did you do it ?)

This is the part I did not do. That menu was a little hidden.

Indeed :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

We did not want to make a specific menu for afp server like ssh, nfs or ftp servers, only to enable/disable it. So we included these actions in the main setup menu.
