       afp_voluuid.conf — Configuration file used by afpd to specify UUID for AFP volumes

Description

       afp_voluuid.conf  is  the  configuration  file  used  by  afpd  to  store  UUID  of  all AFP volumes. The
       configuration lines are composed like:

              "volume-name" "uuid-string"

       The first field is the volume name. Volume names must be quoted if they contain spaces. The second  field
       is the 36 character hexadecimal ASCII string representation of a UUID.

       All  leading spaces and tabs are ignored. Blank lines are ignored. The lines prefixed with # are ignored.
       Any illegal lines are ignored.

              NOTE

              This UUID is advertised by Zeroconf in order to provide  robust  disambiguation  of  Time  Machine
              volumes.

              It is also used by the MySQL CNID backend.

              This file should not be thoughtlessly edited or copied onto another server.
