Thanks for the suggestion.

mount doesn't appear to handle WebDAV, and I couldn't find a man entry for mount_webdav. I have both a client and a server. Although it's likely going to only ever be the client that initiates the update, technically it's the server that contains the data. SInce I'm already using DO, the client can fetch the data and upload it to the iDisk. However, if I wanted to automate the process, there's a possibility that the user will not be logged in, and thus no finder present.

Is there a UNIX tool that will work in the finders absence?

In MarshmallowMode I use the following:
- (void)goToIDisk:(id)sender
{
NSString* name=[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:@"iToolsMember"];

if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"/Volumes/%@",name]])
{
[self mount:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"idisk.mac.com/%@",name] atPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"/Volumes/%@",name]];
}

[self setPath:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"/Volumes/%@",name] fileForPath]];
}

- (void)mount:(NSString*)uri atPath:(NSString*)path
{
[[NSFileManager defaultManager] createDirectoryAtPath:path attributes:nil];

//NSLog(@"Wait for mount.");
[[NSTask launchedTaskWithLaunchPath:@"/sbin/mount_webdav" arguments:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:uri,path,nil]] waitUntilExit];
}
