For a while, I had a Linux-based AFP server in my network. Due to issues not related to this question, I've decided to switch it off. Problem is - the server still appears in the Finder sidebar. The original server name was hostname-afp
, and for a few weeks, the entry of that name was still visible in the sidebar. About a week ago, the name changed to hostname-2-afp
, now it is hostname-3-afp
. Where does Finder store the reference to that server, and how do I remove it?
Unchecking the servers in the Finder preferences does not remove the server from the sidebar. Unchecking the Bonjour Computers does remove it, but I'd like to keep the Bonjour feature enabled, and re-checking Bonjour Computers makes the ghost entry reappear as well. Cmd-/Ctrl-/Whatever-Dragging the entry does nothing.
