Apple Mac OS X Server (Administrator’s Guide) - Manual (Page 227)

File Services 227
Guest access is a convenient way to provide occasional users with access to files and other
items in share points that allow guest access. For better security, do not select this option.
Note: If you allow guest access for Apple file service, AFP lets you control guest access for
individual share points.
See “Configuring Apple File Protocol (AFP) Share Points” on page 212.
6 Select “Enable secure connections” if you want to allow clients to connect using secure AFP
(uses SSH).
7 Under the “Maximum client connections (including Guests)” option:
Select Unlimited if you don’t want to limit the number of users who can be connected to
your server at one time.
Enter a number if you want to limit the number of simultaneous users.
The maximum number of simultaneous users is also limited by the type of license you have. For
example, if you have a 10-user license, then a maximum of 10 users can connect at one time.
Limiting the number of connections can free resources to be used by other services and
applications.
8 Under the “Maximum Guest connections” option:
Select Unlimited if you don’t want to limit the number of guest users who can be connected
to your server at one time.
Enter a number if you want to limit how many of your maximum client connections can be
used by guests. This number cannot be greater than the number of client connections
allowed.
9 Click Save.
