AFP bind to address

[hugovsky]

Hi all. I've searched but couldn't find an answer. Is there a way so I can bind afp service only to certain ip addresses? Like the option in nfs service or hosts allow in smb shares.

I have afp shares that I don't want across vlans. I just want them on a single vlan.

It looks like afpd.conf supports it, but FreeNAS does not provide an Auxiliary Parameters field for extra config options. If this feature is important to you, make a feature request at bugs.freenas.org and post the issue number here.

Issue #6063 created. Thanks for the tip.

I need it because I have a vlan where I want to make a share to one folder that's inside another folder, in another share on default lan. Does that make sense?

Dont nest AFP shares even if you split them on different vLAN's
The AFP databases on both shares gets confused and try to update each other on the same time, thereby corrupting both share db's

Thanks for the tip. Will pay attention to that. But, in my case, that's not a problem. My problem is that I can still see all the share of AFP in a different vlan. Imagine this scenario:

afp in default vlan with 4 shares.
smb in vlanX with share of folder X that is a folder inside a folder being shared over afp. (Sorry for making it complicated.)

User connected to vlan X can view afp shares. Even if he cannot access them.
