I have been googling all morning without any results so I am asking
the
forum while I continue to search.
On a windows server I have a database that I can mount to my mac
desktop
simply using
Mount volume "afp://username:password@IP/shared-volume-with-database"
But I would like for it to be invisible. I want the database to
still work
but no one can see the mounted volume.
Thanks for your help!

If you 'mount volume' it is mounted in the standard /Volumes path for
all to see (unless your Finder preferences hide mounted servers).
The most obvious solution is to use mount:
do shell script "mount -t afp afp://username:password@server/shared-volume-with-database
/path/to/local"
This will mount the specified AFP URL at /path/to/local where you can
now access the remote volume.
