Mounting Volume

Hi all,

I have written a script in OS 8.5.1 and it works fine. All it does is
empty trash, close some programs, mount volume, create alias to users home
directory and thats about it. My problem is that I also need to run it on
older OS's. Ther older OS's consist of 8.0 and 7.5.3. 8.0 doesn't support
the "mount volume" command, so I copied a few of the scripting files from
OS 8.5.1 accross and now it recognises the "mount volume" command but
doesn't run it properly. Here is the little bit of code:

mount volume mountDir on server serverName as user name userName with
password userPassword

where:

mountDir = "Users" Shared folder on Server
serverName = "Curr_Pdc" server's name
userName = (returned value from dialog box)
userPassword = (returned value from dialog box)

The error message in OS 8.0 is:

"Users" doesn't understand the mount volume message.

Can anyone please give me some leads on what to do to fix this problem? Or
should I try a work around approach.

Thanks for any help.

Michael.
