I know it's futile to ask since I've combed all the lists and Googled
everywhere, and I've found lots of other people asking this question,
but no really good answers. Here goes anyway:
Can anyone explain how to programatically mount an iDisk using webdav
(and here's the kicker) without requiring user input (i.e. without
asking the user for a password)?
I already know how to get the user's iDisk id (user name) and password,
and I have found rather elliptical references on how to generate a file
containing these in the correct format and pass these to the
mount_webdav command, but I still can't make this work, even in
Terminal.
Frustratingly, some combinations that I've tried have put my machine in
such a state that the Finder becomes totally inoperative, even to the
point of not properly relaunching.
For example, the following is supposed to work but does not:
/bin/cat membernameandpssswordinfo | sbin/mount_webdav -a0
idisk.mac.com/membername/ /Volumes/membername/
where membernameandpssswordinfo is generated by the code given in the
man page for mount_webdav (I commented out the call to unlink so that I
can hang on to membernameandpssswordinfo).
Any pointers appreciated, concrete working code preferred.
