Thanks for the script, tried it yesterday and all work great, surprising for a complete novice. I do have a question though. I've run this on 2 G5's with automatic login and all works great, but if I run the same script on a couple of Mac Pro's, again with automatic login, I get a "could not find server", almost as if its trying to mount before the computer has had time to get its head around the start up. I've discovered that if I disable auto login and use the password login (about 5 secs extra) the error is resolved and the disk mounts fine. Is there a way of adding a "pause" so the Mac Pro's can have time to find the connections before I ask them to mount automatically?

Best regards

Does anyone have any updates on how to do this in 10.5? The more specifics the better . . . Thanks!

Time to bump a year old thread! (Since it's STILL showing up on Google's search results)

"Mapping" a network drive is as easy as:

1. Connecting to the server first. (Command+K)
2. Choosing the share you want.
3. Then adding the mounted share as a log-in item in the Accounts system preferences pane.

I am using the latest version of Leopard and it works perfectly.

PS: Having your audio sample libraries on a big 5TB network share on a gigabit LAN is heaven!

hmmmm, glad someone kicked this back up...i get the connection failed error on 2 Tiger machines trying to automount drives...

went the user/login route for the 2 volumes, i can set them up, but when I reboot, they show up as unknown as well...

works wonderfully on my Leopard machines (3 of them, and 2 of my Tiger machines, but going the same route on 2 specific Tiger machines, get the same error...don' get why it works on some, and not others...all system and network settings are the same I believe, but I'll double check that right now!

I can log in successfully to the drives, and have saved the passwords in the keychain...
