AFP corrupt and suddenly not working
Hello Community, my AFP Service suddenly stopped. How do I get the AFP service working again?? Stopping and Starting the service in the Browser Interface of ReadyOS gives error: Unable to start and modify service (error code: 15002030001) I even tried to reinstall OS i.e. I installed the 6.8.0 Beta - but still the same error and unavailability of AFP as before. the AFP log also shows errors (see below) - but I don't no any further measures to get the service working again. I need AFP working for MacOS TimeMachine Backups. Ideas and help greatly appreciated.

FVS336Gv3 PPTP VPN for macOS Sierra
Hi Netgear community, One of our sites has a NETGEAR ProSafe™ Gigabit Dual WAN SSL VPN Firewall FVS336Gv3 which has PPTP Server enabled and setup with working users for Windows OS, there is 1 user that uses MAC OS. Since that 1 user upgraded their macOS to Sierra the option for PPTP has been removed (Apple reports the reason is for security). I have tried enabling SSLVPN in the firewall but have struggled to get that working. As a fallback, we are looking at 3rd party clients that can create the VPN using PPTP again. I've looked at some suggested clients (FlowVPN, VPN Tracker, user is trying TunnelBlick) but not getting very far. Ideally, we want a freeware that can do PPTP (unless there is a free SSLVPN option). Any suggestions or if you have got around this issue with macOS Sierra. Many thanks in advance.
