In addition to tweaking the configuration with SharePoints, you can also try xAFP to monitor connections.

Thanks, nice and simple

You didn't have 'Download important updates in the background' ticked in your software update panel did you?

No, cause they often mess things up as this one did (swap was back to startup disk) and as its a server I want to keep it up as much as I can.

There are lots of command-line tools. E.g. 'netstat' comes with OS X. But you need to learn to use them.

Maybe easier is to install a VNC server on your server machine and then use a VNC client to look at (and control) the server from any machine.
Google for "VNC" or look at the articles about it in the main macosxhints site.

I think will have to learn a little bit of netstat then. I don't want to control the OS with VNC while an other person is using the G4 ( it has a scanner attached to it ). I dream with the day that OS X will allow us to have multiple simultaneous users concurrently logged in as you can in X11 (not only fast switch between them).

BTW 10.3.8 is running and AppleFileServer is still not present at config fork in NetInfo Manager. Maybe that's because this was a straight 10.3 fresh format 'n install while other machines came from a 10.2 upgrade. I'm not very littered in XML to edit the plist file easily, so if this is true, it's a major draw back for me. Can anyone confirm it ?
