For those of you who are constantly mounting a certain computer over a network:
Instead of having to "Connect to Server" and wait for the networked machine to appear, and then type in the User/Pass, and then select the right volume ... Simply create an alias to the volume the next time it is mounted and you will only have to type in the Password.
This feature has been around in 10 from the start, but it has never worked more flawlessly for me than with Jaguar.
[Editor's note: If you connect to a number of servers, consider putting the aliases in a folder, and then keep that folder in your dock. This will give you one-click pop-up access to any server in the folder. You can also try putting the aliases in your login items, although pre-Jaguar functionality of this feature seemed a bit spotty, based on a couple of threads here.]
