  • // vs /at/

    When contacting another local network computer via "Connect to Server"
    browser (in Mac OS 10.3.9) what is the difference between
    afp://192.168.1.1 and afp:/at/192.168.1.1 or afp://PB1400 and afp:/at/PB1400... other than the "at"? When is one format to be used
    rather than the other? Is one format more correct than the other?

    I have noticed that one format needs to be used when I have WiFi
    security turned on and the other when security is turned off, but don't
    why. Hopefully some of you that know much more about this can explain. Thanks... Jim
