And if you run AppleFileServer at the command line with the -d option

I have also been experiencing these errors an a regular basis. The users currently logged in are fine, but any new connections receive the "AFP sytem error..." message.
I see no error logs in the /Library/Logs/AppleFileService directory.
Is there a workaround for this issue?
