Q: Accessing an AFP address

Hi: I'm trying to access an AFP site and several web browsers I've used it doesn't recognize/accept the site. Any ideas how I can access this? I have all the information I need once I actually get to the site, but can't seem to get a browser to recognize it.

Thanks

Mac OS X (10.6.8)

If you mean AFP as in afp://, are you sure the remote server is offering this service over the internet? Usually, this is offered on the local network and first you have to connect remotely to it, eg, using VPN. See also

Yep, this would be it. Supposedly I do have access but haven't been able to access the site.

Thanks for your reference - it was helpful.
