Product Description:
Volume Mounter is an application for mounting AppleShare volumes. It keeps a small database of the mounting information needed for each volume and can mount the volumes at program launch or manually from the pop-up menu or scrolling list.
Volume Mounter is especially useful in a classroom or corporate environment with many different file servers. Once the mounting information is entered into Volume Mounter it is stored in the Preferences file. This Preference file can then be copied to all lab computers immediately giving all users access to server shares. This greatly reduces user training and administrative workload.

Brief feature list:
- Supports Quartz text rendering under Mac OS X 10.1.5+
- Advanced Preferences with password protection
- Supports AppleTalk and TCP/IP file servers over AFP
- Database holds up to 128 volumes
- Volumes may be entered multiple times with different passwords and/or different networking protocols
- 30-day full functioning demo
- Tested with MacOS X 10.3 - 10.4.4.
What's new in this version:
- Bug fix: Fixed a bug for SMB mounting. This should work properly now.
- Made changes to Global Preferences. This version will allow the global prefs to be saved to the users prefs folder.
- When running under OS X VM3 uses a new API to mount volumes as the old API was having problems under Tiger. I'll change this when/if I notice that Tiger fixes this.
- NOTE: I have moved this product to XCode to move VM3 to a Universal Binary. As such the program no longer works on Mac OS 9.x

Program Does What it Claims - Version: 3.5d3, 6/29/2005 01:28PM PST

Since releasing Tiger, the mounting feature for remote volumes has not worked properly. Automount Pref pane (referenced in a previous review) does not function at all in Tiger, and is no longer being developed. Writing a custom applescript does not work either, but for some reason since 10.4.1 this program functions correctly.
tell application "Finder"
mount volume "afp://adress/sharename" as user name ¬
"USERNAME" with password "PASSWORD"
end tell
Save the Script as Executable and Drop it into your Start-Objects in System-Preferences -> Accounts
You can do the same for SMB-Volumes. In this case use "smb://" instead of "afp://"
