site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.1.0.040913 Are you aware of how disk arbitration works? You got the volume mounted using mount_smbfs, but the Finder did not know this happened. The disk arbitration stuff is what does this. There are some calls to make to disk arbitration to get the Finder to notice the new volume.

Thanks for the reactions and the tips.

I have tried with osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to mount volume "smb://host/share"' and now it works like expected.

Conclusion: although I use the documented mount_smbfs command, the Finder looks confused after mounting a Windows share in this way. IMHO, this should be considered as a bug in the Finder.
