I would like to mount afp volumes in an appletalk zone that is different
than the zone the client machine is in. In Panther this worked:
mount volume volumeName on server serverName in AppleTalk zone zoneName as
user name userName
This seems to be broken in Tiger so I changed into use an "afp://" URL:
set afpURL to ("afp://" & serverName & ":" & zoneName & "/" & volumeName) as
text
mount volume afpURL as user name userName
And this pops up a "Connect to Server" dialog box prompting for a "Server
address" to be input. This dialog only appears if I add the ":" & zoneName
part to the URL, otherwise I get an error:
set afpURL to ("afp://" & serverName & "/" & volumeName) as text
mount volume afpURL as user name userName
--> Disk volumeName wasn't found.
Strangely enough an IP address works:
set afpURL to ("afp://" & serverIP & "/" & volumeName) as text
mount volume afpURL as user name userName
I would sure like to avoid using IP addresses for obvious reasons. Any
suggestions? Anyone know if this is a network problem?
Thanks,
Tom
