You can run:
$ defaults write com.apple.AppleShareClient "afp_cleartexup on them (they really should, but I doubt I need to tell you that).
For then doing the mounts, we have a set of scripts (I assume this is
NWEA?) that we use to do the mounts and loads of tests. If this is the
case, I can send them along off-list, let me know. Or, for opening
single apps that require a mount point, I use script editor to write an
app and then save it as an app bundle so we can brand it and use it.
Below is sample code for this.
if
(list disks) does not contain "VolumeName" then
--test to see if volume is already mounted then
tell application "Finder"
mount volume "afp://user:password@server.domain.org/VolumeName"
end tell
end if
--hide volume from desktops so it doesn’t get messed with
do shell script "/usr/bin/SetFile -a V /Volumes/VolumeName"
do shell script "killall Finder"
tell application "System Events" to delay 2
tell application "Finder"
open file "Applications:MyApp" of startup disk
end tell
Note in the above that the /usr/bin/SetFile file is from the developer
tools and is used to hide the volume from the desktop. It works much
like the jamf mount –hidden command but this doesn’t seem to hide it
from finder like the jamf one does (which changed in 6) so that apps can
still see the volume. We use this to launch our apps needing a volume,
but don’t use it for testing.

I thought about that, but I don't want all 6,000 clients accessing the
share at once and I also don't want it permanently mounted. In my
experience with this testing app from last year is that it works best if
you stagger connections and testing sessions to say, no more than 400
clients at one time.
I am going to try to invoke apple script from the command line like
suggested and see if it makes a difference.
Thanks for everyone's input and help, it is appreciated.

Are you using Open Directory? You can set a share as a login item via
Workgroup Manager. I'm not sure of the applicable MCX settings off the
top of my head, but if WGM can do it, you can push the MCX via a dscl
script.

Still no dice. The problem I think I am having is that these shares are
on old Netware 6.5 servers and 6.5 supports AFP but heck if I know what
version of AFP it is. I do know that it is old enough that it does not
support encrypted passwords. If I recall you need to have universal
passwords enabled and well the Novell side is being migrated to SuSe but
I am not really a part of that project. Different network admins.
So, I can hit cmd + K and connect to the file share just fine. I can't
connect via command line. I don't know if there is actually a
difference. DNS is kind of weird because we have an old DNS running on
some legacy systems, which it is running an older DNS for these file
shares. At this point in time I am almost considering hosting the
database file on one of my Mac servers instead. I don't know how well
that will fare though, and my window to get this working is getting
shorter and shorter.
I just want to create a generic account, grant it access to this one
particular file on a network share so the application can write data to
the database file. Once the file share is mounted the application
launches and takes care of the rest.
It works if I do it manually, no problem. I however, want to have the
user. I'd rather it work under the hood via a shell script.

I think he's looking to have the user log in with their creds, right??
so actually that osascript works if you remove the user name and
password part. that'll make the finder request that the user log in
rather then the shell.

Re: [Casper] need advice on self service mount points, and app launching
How about something like this for the script, should do the mount for
you without any problems:
osascript -e 'mount volume "afp://username:pass@servername/sharepoint
<afp://username:pass@servername/sharepoint> "'

Subject: Re: [Casper] need advice on self service mount points, and app
launching
Well
A bit of progress, but not in the right direction. I can mount the share
fine via the finder, however when using the mount_afp command I can
never get it to work. I always get this error:
mount_afp: AFPMountURL returned error 22, errno is 118
So this is my method of doing this from the terminal:
mkdir /Volumes/FS106
mount_afp afp://user:password@10.10.10.10
<afp://user:password@10.10.10.10>
<mailto:afp://user:password@10.10.10.10
<mailto:afp://user:password@10.10.10.10>
<mailto:afp://user:password@10.10.10.10>
>
/Volumes/FS106
I am looking at creating a generic user account so it just auto maps via
a script and possibly loop it so that is checks to see if that volume is
mounted and then once it is mounted it will launch the app, which will
have location specific configuration for where to look for the database
file.
Any help would be appreciated

Well
This is a bit of a complicated debacle I am in. I have some old Novell
servers that do not support encrypted passwords, so I must have users
log in using plain text. So I need to mass edit a plist file on each
user account to allow this. Then I want them to click once on a self
service policy and have it map the network share that holds the database
files. Then in the app's preferences I already have it pointed out where
to look.
but I need to wrap this up in a one click solution for the end user, so
they don't get confused. My other thought is to just create one generic
user account that can have access to this database file and then use
that generic password in the script and just have it mount under the
hood with out the user's actual credentials.
Thanks for any advice.

Note in the above that the /usr/bin/SetFile file is from =
the developer tools and is used to hide the volume from the desktop. It =
works much like the jamf mount –hidden command but this =
doesn’t seem to hide it from finder like the jamf one does (which=
changed in 6) so that apps can still see the volume. We use this to =
launch our apps needing a volume, but don’t use it for testing.<b=

I thought about that, but I don't want all =

This is a bit of a complicated debacle I am in. I =
have some old Novell servers that do not support encrypted passwords, =
so I must have users log in using plain text. So I need to mass edit a =
plist file on each user account to allow this. Then I want them to click =
once on a self service policy and have it map the network share that holds =
the database files. Then in the app's preferences I already have it =
pointed out where to look.<br><br><br> </p>

I looked at the mount_afp command but when I run it =

solution for the end user, so they don't get confused. My other =
thought is to just create one generic user account that can have access to =
this database file and then use that generic password in the script and =
just have it mount under the hood with out the user's actual credential=
