Roaming profiles without a server
Authored by: Brock Lee on Aug 07, '03 02:24:04PM
I started by creating an account on the new box. This account has an automatic mount to my main Mac.

How is this automatic mount done? Does it occur upon logging in? Upon booting? Via "System Preferences" or though some other mechanism?

Thanks in advance,

B.L.

The best way is via an applescript that contains your name and password, as well as the path to the share.

However, a seamless mount is not really needed. Making the mount point a login item that prompts for a password is enough. The important thing is that you don't try and use this system until the mount has been loaded and the links work.
