   Does anyone have reference/information about the compatibility of
   afserver and iserver ? Is the protocol across the link totally
   different, or there is a chance to run AFSERVER-based programs
   with ISERVER ?

The protocol is completely different.  However INMOS had an occam
protocol translator at one point.  I have no idea if they would 
make it available.
