Easily mount your shared folders.

Note

Due to new bundle app ID the auto update mechanism will can fail. When it happens please delete the old version manually and download the current version.

I'm sorry for this trouble.

AutomounMaker is an easy to use GUI tool (DONATEWARE OS X native Universal Binary) to create scripts that will mount an AFP, FTP, WebDAV(http), NFS or SMB network share.

You can use the script as a Startup Item in your user's session config to automatically mount the given share upon login.
If you use always the same shared volume on your desktop, AutomountMaker is more easy than the classic Connect to Server... proposed by Apple.
