I'd like to be able to connect to my Mac via File Sharing. I have File Sharing turned on in the Sharing Preference Pane.

However, when I go into the Airpot config and try to port forward to my desktop, when I select Personal File Sharing from the dropdown, it says "A public TCP port number conflicts with a file sharing port on the base station. Disable file sharing or chose a different port number."

I want to connect to my mac via AFP from outside my firewall. What's the work around?
