[demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text]
Heres what I use:
on idle
tell application "Finder"
if disk "CogentR" exists then --do nothing
else
mount volume B
"afp://207.127.235.86/CogentR/" as user
name "CogentR" with password "password"
end if
end tell
return 540 -- number of seconds before "on idle" is called
again
end idle
My server times out at 10 minutes so finder accesses the server every 9
