Have you tried the following:

1.
mount volume "TheDiskName" on server "TheServerName" as user name "User"
with password "Password"
This mounts via Appletalk

2.
mount volume "afp://user:password@serverIPnumber/ServerName/diskname"

serverIPnumber ie 20.1.5.14

This mounts via TCP/IP



If there is guest access the following will also work:
mount volume "TheDiskName" on server "TheServerName"

As far as W2K is concerned we use the appletalk log on method as above.


The "Standard Additions" scripting addition is required in your scripting
additions folder in the system folder.
This is part of the install of post 8.5 systems

To get the accurate addresses you need you can mount the volumes manually
and "get info". This will give you the actual disk and server names and the
TCP/IP address if TCP/IP is the connection type.

Good luck
