Hello,
I enabled remote login with SSH end then forwarden my local port 10548 to port 548 on the remote computer. After that i connect to my remote computer with AFP via SSH. But all the folder I want to open are blocked because I 'don't have the permissions to view te folders.
Can you guys help me?
Thanks in advance,

You need to log into that computer as the user that owns those files/folders, or give your user on the from side access to those folders in the Sharing preferences.
This is the command I entered on terminal
ssh -v Username@XX.XX.XXX.XXX -L 10548:127.0.0.1:548
The usernamen I entered is the administrator of the computer, but I can't even view the files on that account.
How about when you connect via AFP? That command just creates a tunnel. It doesn't connect via AFP.
When you connect via AFP, you need to use the correct account name and password.
As Barney-15E says, it is the AFP login that is important. How you ssh login does not matter.
Have you checked your System Preferences -> Sharing -> File Sharing to make sure the settings allow the AFP user the access you desire to the files/folders you desire.
Generally speaking if you login to an Admin account, you get to access anything and everything on the Mac.
