I have loved Lifehacker from my first visit about a year ago. Their content and authors are great. The articles are useful for Mac, Linux and Windows users alike. I always wanted to be a commenter but never took the time to “audition” to become one. Well last night I found my opportunity to try out on their article on “How to mount a Windows shared folder on your Mac” and was accepted.
My method is similar to Snorbalp’s. I wrote an AppleScript, saved it as an application and added it to my login items. Once you login and run the script, you can add the password to keychain.
mount volume “cifs://WORKGROUP;username@MACHINENAME/SHARENAME”
