OSXFAQ Mac OS X UNIX Tip-of-the-Day
Week 84 - AFP and NFS Mounting (23 August 2004)
by
Adrian Mayo - Editor, OSXFAQ
Monday - Mount AFP Shares
Mount an AFP share using the Terminal.
An AFP share can be mounted anywhere on the filesystem - for example in /Volumes or at the root of your home directory. The 'mount point' must be an existing directory.
For example, to mount my home directory from another machine (melkor) onto the mount point 'melkor' in my home directory on this machine, I use:
$ cd ~
$ mkdir melkor
$ mount -t afp afp://myuser:mypassword@melkor.mayo-family.com/myuser melkor
mount_afp: the mount flags are 0000 the altflags are 0020
'@melkor.mayo-family.com/myuser' is the hostname or IP address of the server followed by the AFP share point as seen in the Finder's 'Connect...' dialogue.
$ ls
Desktop Documents Movies Pictures Sites melkor
Development Library Music Public bin osxfaq
To unmount use:
$ umount melkor
and the directory will be deleted.
