If you are using Mac OS X Server for your file server (AFP), you
should use the Server Admin application to change your Authentication
setting to "Standard" (not "Any Method" or "Kerberos") for the AFP
service. This setting is in the "Access" tab under the Settings for
the AFP service.
If you do not want to use Kerberos at all, make sure you do not have
a "/Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos" file or a "/etc/krb5.conf"
file on your client machines. This will prevent the Authenticate to
Kerberos dialog from automatically appearing in response to
applications negotiate Kerberos. Note that some applications may
still programmatically generate the dialog even if you have no
Kerberos configuration (hence my recommendation to turn off Kerberos
support in your AFP server).
Hope this helps,
