For that very reason I use a timeout setting in the applescript. ?"with
timeout of 15 seconds". ?The apple timeout is two minutes as a
default.
Volume List is nice in that you can always check the resulting array of
volumes before having to call the mount routine. ?So in the mount
routine
check Volume List and then call mount if passed volume is not in the
array.

Check out the "volume list" command
If you set all volumes to be mounted at startup you can get a list of
all
available volumes.
The down side is that, if you set a volume to be mounted at startup,
and
it's unavailable the mac will spend several minutes looking for it
before
giving up and moving on.
This was my experience from a few years ago

there is also mount the BSD command (and its variations) so no need to
call AppleScript

Do you know if there is a way to pass a user and password to the
command?
I looked over the link and did not see. ¬=A0If not, does this mean
that
the
command will prompt for a user and password? ¬=A0Is so, this is a show
stopper for batch workstation / headless processes.

Hi,
Sorry, I think you misunderstood. ¬=A0I was asking about the unix
version
of
the mount command. ¬=A0I know I can do this in Applescript it's easy.
¬=A0The
original OP wanted to know how to simply mount a volume using SMB
protocol. ¬=A0I think using applescript although not the only way, is
much
easier than delving into unix. ¬=A0Thanks for the links.
Regards,

Hi Koen,
The keychain is cool yes. ¬=A0I don't have any issues mounting or
dismounting
volumes. ¬=A0I just use AppleScript on Mac where I can. ¬=A0One must
admit
that
viewing the applescript command versus a dozen versions of mount in the
man pages is the easier way to go for most people.

IMHO your assumption is correct. Syntax should be like this:
protocol://username:password@...
In Pauls case:
smb://user:pass@...
@Paul
If you do not want to set the password in the mount command on your
headless station, you could log in for once, mount the volume manually
and store the username/password in the keychain. From then on you
should be able to mount without password.
