Auto link to a windows folder

Featured Replies

Hi everybody

I know this has nothing to do with FM but I am a bit stuck and I need some help from the mac users.

What I want is that on startup I get a link established to a shared folder on a windows server. I can do this manually but I do not know how to get it to happen automatically on startup.

It already does this for another folder on the same machine but I cannot for the life of me work out how you do it. The mac help files are very frustrating!!!!!

Thanks in advance peeps

Phil

I don't know if this works, not having access to a Windows Server. But this is the AppleScript to do it. You cannot compile it until you have the correct info in it however:


mount volume "smb://user:password@server/share"

repeat

	try

		alias "share:"

		exit repeat

	end try

end repeat

tell application "Finder" to open alias "share:folder:"

Thanks Fenton

I will give that a whirl
