Setting Up a Mac OS X Client to Automatically Mount a Share Point
As an alternative to using the network mount feature of AFP or NFS, Mac OS X users
can set their computers to automatically mount server volumes.
To set a Mac OS X v10.2.8 or earlier client to automatically mount a server volume:
1 Log in to the client computer as the user and mount the volume.
2 Open System Preferences and click Login Items.
3 Click Add, then locate the Recent Servers folder and double-click the volume you want
automatically mounted.
When the user logs in the next time, the server, if available, mounts.
The user can also add the server volume to Favorites and then use the item in the
Favorites folder in the home Library.
To set a Mac OS X v10.3 or later client to automatically mount a server volume:
1 Log in to the client computer as the user and mount the volume.
2 Open System Preferences and click Accounts.
3 Select the user and click Startup Items (in Mac OS X v10.3) or Login Items (in Mac OS X
v10.4 or later).
4 Click the Add (+) button (below the Servers list), select the server volume, and click
Add.
