Write this little code in the Applescript-Editor

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://"

Use this in Apple-Script-Editor - josephsl

Hi
I have success*censored*ky tried using applesript to mount a volume on a server until I recently upgrade to a Mac Pro.
Now, even though this script runs at startup, it will not mount the remote volume.
It gives an error message saying that the volume can't be found.
If however I lanch it manually after startup, it successfully mounts it.
Any ideas why it doesn't work?
