I have recently tried to script file transfer over a network and had
difficulty with mount volume to work. On searching the archives I found
that Tom Trinko had experienced the identical problem and Gnarlodious
had made some suggestions. I have been unable to get to the network to
try them out yet but am intrigued by the problem and am wondering if it
was solved.
If anyone has any suggestions for the best tools to use to transfer a
selected file from a certain folder on one computer to another computer
I am all ears.

i try a simple script
mount volume "a volume" on server "tom trinko's Computer"
i run it on a desktop mac running 10.3.3 and AppleScript 1.9.3. the
remote computer is on my LAN and it too is running 10.3.3 and 1.9.3.
When i run the script I see the dialog
Looking up tom trinko's Computer 118 seconds
that counts down to 114 or 115 and disappears. Then the same dialog
comes up again with the time remaining reset to 118 seconds again. The
second dialog counts down to 114 or 115 then it too goes away and i
get a Network file permission error. File sharing is enabled for both
computers and I can mount the remote volume by using the Go menu item
in Finder.
i tried adding the user name and password using as user name and with
password and the behaviour is the same. I tried switching appleshare
on on the remote computer and the behaviour was still the same.
in the exact same setup i use
mount volume "afp://111.111.111.111/" as user name "melvin" with
password "top secret"
and it works fine.
but if i try
mount volume "a user:thepassword@afp://111.111.111.111/"
i get a network file permission error.
Is there a problem witn mount volume in 10.3.3 or am i missing
something--other than intelligence, wealth, and good looks?
thanks for any help

For starters you should open the "Volumes" folder (it's invisible) and
remove any redundant, leftover or suspicious aliases.
Also, if you have keychain enabled for server logon you should delete
all
keyss to that machine and start over.
