Hi fellas..

What is afs3-fileserver trying to connect to port 7000?
I believe its connected somehow to AirPlayXPCHelper?

I believe that afs stands for Apple Filing Server. It's connected to file sharing.

Edit: Nope. I'm completely wrong. Google says it stands for "Andrew File System" which I believe is a distributed file system.

Ok, thanks.. is this a common operation in macOS?
