I tried to follow these instructions in Mountain Lion and this command:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.AppleShareClient afp_host_prefs_version -int 1
Returned this error:
"Rep argument is not a dictionary".
What do I do now?!?
Thanks!

I found this link on the default you are trying to write. When I had the exact same error message (while setting a different default), it turns out I was missing a required attribute on the value I was trying to set. A list of all attributes can be found if you perform a read on the entire plist.
sudo defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.AppleShareClient.plist
"Rep argument is not a dictionary"
