How does one make this show up in the finder

To add to this great hint, the above examples mount the remote volume as root, and as available to everyone.
Note that you don't have to do it this way.
For example, you could mount a remote volume that'd be only accessible by yourself.

here's how to do this with a directory called disk that's at the root of your home directory.

mkdir disk
mount -t afp afp://user:pass@ip.adress.server/volume_to_mount ~/disk

see how there is no sudo involved in the mount command.
Here, I get a few kextload warnings, but don't mind them.

PS the non-accessibility of ~/disk depends on the permission you've set to your home directory ;-)
