SMB CIFS AFP ETC... Server Path URL question


  • Subject: SMB CIFS AFP ETC... Server Path URL question

Hello All,

I am currently in the process of writing a small Applescript program and was running into trouble trying to find a way to access the actual SMB, CIFS, AFP paths (URLs) as they are listed in the Finders' "Get Info" window for a selected Network volume.

I am trying to read the Server: field and save it as a variable for a particular mounted network volume. I have a feeling that this may not be a "value" that is easily accessible with AppleScript. Since I could not find any info on it from ADC documents and the AppleScript mailing list as of yet. Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be use to read that Server field.

Here is the Get info window for the network drive showing a Server path that I would like to find a way to accesses in a read only fashion. https://cms.psu.edu/AngelUploads/Files/djb376/Get_Info.png

Again the string I am trying to read into a variable is this:
"cifs://MSHOME;DANIELBR@IBM_NETVISTA/MYVIDEOS"

Thank you,
Daniel J. Brieck Jr.
