Howdy,
I am trying to find a solution to a script I have made that logs a user
into a Novel server automatically, runs an application stored on that
server and then quits. Everything works fine in testing with my own
account with a valid user name and password, but I need the script to log
in using a generic account that has no password.
The script call I have that works with my account is:
set whatAccount to "afp://MYusername:MYpassword@" & serverVolume
mount volume whatAccount
(*USING MY USERNAME AND PASSWORD*)
What I cant figure out is how to pass a simple carriage return as the
password for the generic account.
Putting nothing or a space in place of password doesnt seem to work:
set whatAccount to "afp://ANYusername: @" & serverVolume
mount volume whatAccount
But neither does using an escape character with a return:
set whatAccount to "afp://ANYusername:\r@" & serverVolume
mount volume whatAccount
Is this a Novell issue, an afp issue or a script issue?
Thanks for any advice.
LEIF
