! UPDATE: Wicked Cool GUI here !
!! Much kudos to Erica for the lovely TUAW post !!
You can find out more about Erica's
substantial work on the iPhone here
We also seem to have made it to the top of the 10 of the digg.com tech section,
and to the front page of the "Top 10 in All Topics"
(We are very 'psyched' about this)

so just grab dns-sd from above!
Notes
Extract the tar.gz file to /opt/iphone/afp/
Then just:
/opt/iphone/afp/startserver.sh
Should start the daemon
Seems fast enough to stream video
Here is a quick demo with a test mpeg tivo'd recording on the iphone:
imac /F12/ du -h FSWA.mp4
415M FSWA.mp4
The file system looks small as it is based off the root FS, but this is in the
media partition, so afp also follows the symlinks correctly (woot!)
AFP Registered Users on the iphone
Added DHX encryption:
Nov 10 13:48:17 localhost afpd[105]: uam: "DHCAST128" available
Nov 10 13:48:33 localhost afpd[106]: ASIP session:548(4) from 192.168.1.127:5018 5(7)
Nov 10 13:48:33 localhost afpd[105]: server_child[1] 106 done
We can now log in as root, same starting instructions as per guest example below.
Also edited uid 0 code in netatalk for this to work:
Two file systems are exported currently, they can be changed in AppleVolume.default in this distro:
Will log this to /var/log/syslog (you need this enabled if you want or need to see this):
Nov 10 13:55:46 localhost afpd[130]: ASIP session:548(4) from 192.168.1.127:50198(7)
Nov 10 13:55:46 localhost afpd[130]: dhx login: root
Nov 10 13:55:46 localhost afpd[130]: login: root login this is bad! but this is an iPhone!
Nov 10 13:55:46 localhost afpd[130]: login root (uid 0, gid 0) AFP2.2
AFP guest on the iphone
Need to connect as guest at the moment - I need to work on the auth.
it also only uses the mtab backend, but for now it will be ok - we can read and
write ok
Thanks to drudge of http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/site/
for asking about this, he has packaged most of the stuff on this site from start to end!
19:19 < drudge> how about something using the afp

21:28 < core> not bad from question to a working web page in two hours :)
So to the code
Extract the tar.gz file to /opt/iphone/afp/
Then just:
/opt/iphone/afp/startserver.sh
Should start the daemon
Then back over on the mac:
imac /afpd/ df -H /Volumes/test\ folder/

imac /afpd/ md5 /Volumes/test\ folder/test.dat
MD5 (/Volumes/test folder/test.dat) = 4c6426ac7ef186464ecbb0d81cbfcb1e
Back on the iphone:
# md5 /tmp/test/test.dat
4c6426ac7ef186464ecbb0d81cbfcb1e /tmp/test/test.dat
Result!
You can change the export by editing this file:
# cat /opt/iphone/afp/etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.system
/tmp/test "test folder" cnidscheme:mtab
Remember that the daemon runs as nobody, so currently can only see chmod 777 are as :)
