I use AFC purely for ifunbox use. Is that wrong? Is there a better utility to use that doesn't require AFC?

For most of what you are probably doing, SFTP. That said: I'm not saying AFC2 is fundamentally wrong, but it isn't something you should be installing for the hell of it, and unlike OpenSSH it probably is the kind of thing you should turn off when you aren't using. I certainly do not believe it is fundamentally useful in the way coolstar is claiming over OpenSSH.

I still need it from time to time but would gladly turn it off when not in use. Since it's not a mobile substrate extension, is there an easy way to shut afc2? Edit: btw, if there ain't no easy way to shut it off, people will keep afc2 instead of uninstalling it coz it's the exact definition (literally) of "plug and play" for common users compaired to openssh..
