Be careful. Mountpoints in /Volumes are not guaranteed to have the same name as what you see in the Finder. For instance, rename your hard drive to "Adhamh" and then mount your iDisk and see what its mountpoint name is. (I'd guess Adhamh-1, but there's no guarantee of that either.)

Here's the solution, pretty straight forward. [dictionary valueForKey:@"username"] is the .Mac username as returned by the username method of DMTransaction.

NSString *mountediDisk = nil;
struct statfs *buf;
int i, count;
const char *vol = [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"/Volumes/%@", [dictionary valueForKey: @"username"]] UTF8String];
count = getmntinfo(&buf, 0);
for(i=0; i < count; i++) {
if(strcmp(buf[i].f_mntonname, vol) == 0)
mountediDisk = [NSString stringWithUTF8String: buf [i].f_mntfromname];
}


mountediDisk ends up being @"http://idisk.mac.com/adhamh"; for my user.

Hello,

I'm using FSMountServerVolumeSync in a thread to mount an iDisk:

FSMountServerVolumeSync((CFURLRef)[dictionary valueForKey: @"url"], NULL, (CFStringRef)[dictionary valueForKey: @"username"], (CFStringRef)[dictionary valueForKey: @"password"], NULL, 1);

However, I don't want to mount the iDisk again if its already mounted. So far I haven't found a way to check and see if the iDisk is already other than checking to see if the /Volume/ dotmac_username directory exists. Checking for the directory just seems like a bad idea because the directory can exist even if the iDisk isn't actually mounted.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Adhamh
