Mac OS X - Automount samba share?
336018
Your best bet on accomplishing this is to use a Login Hook.  This is a script you can write that perform an action at login time.  In this case having a samba share mount before the user's credentials are submitted.  Below are a couple of links that explain Login Hooks in more detail (including instructions on creating them).

Assuming u are running win XP.\nu can use Acronis True Image backup utility.\nThis software is just released and can backup applicationes.\nBesides it's rather cheap.

well.... you said network cards....\n\nso this states to me a pci based mac that doesnt have an in-built network socket (am i correct?)\n\nthe guy above did say it could be as easy as windows file sharing, but i really really think it would be much easier with some sort of a dhcp switch box or a cheap router as both of these sort out any mess of connections, alls is needed is to tell the mac where the windows pc is via ip connection to a foler and bingo , instant file sharing possible (BUT, this os osx information)\n\nif you want to SHARE like a windows pc on anything os 9.x or below  id suggest looking up Dave 5.1 or below  (there is an osx version but really... its already ready to do what dave does in osx so its rather pointless on anything above os 9.x to use dave)\n\n\np.s dave is not free , you do get a trial, and boy when i had a go at that with the os8.6 and 9.2 & 9.4  (9.4 is the osx updated os9) it worked REALLY REALLY good, it shared folders, it logged into a domain created on a linux box acting like a windows server,  and it played doom3 networked which is really really funny and awesome\n\ni know im babbling on but there is a point to my madness lol..  i just hope its seen and understood

if you mean C: on the same PC, you cannot map local drives and use them as shortcuts to drives on the same machine. You can create a *share* for a local drive to which other users can attach. You can, however, create a desktop shortcut (and give it any name you like) for your own use on your PC.

Or you can mount (Map) remote network drive and work with it like with local drive.

you can try to use true image version 7 to backup the whole drive. all you need is to register on the acronis site and get true image for FREE:\n\nhttp://www.acronis.com/mag/vnu-ati7\n\nalso you can read some sort of a tutorial for this verison here:\n\nhttp://forums.hardwarezone.com/showthread.php?t=1442933

Use alcohol 120 or Extractor, in alcohol, create a virtual drive and mount the .bin file and explore it, it will show all the files

You can use a network or you can link them using a firewire cable. If you press the 'T' key while booting, a mac will act as a firewire harddrive. The other computer can then access the files on the harddrive as if it was connected to a external harddrive.

ohhh Mac os ftp that is built into the finder and activated with command-k only opens a read-only connection to the server! why? I don't know! but it's been that way for a long time.\n\nWhich dedicated ftp program do you  use? I use Cyberduck (pretty simple and cool)\n\nif you really have to do it without an extra program you can start up Terminal, and use the built-in ftp command (it has no read-only restriction)

Daemon tools and Alchol 120% work great, same if you get Nero, as you can mount images with this too.

piece of cake man.. But you got to be careful. Log on to the hard disk as slave in any machine. go to folder options. Untick thee USE SIMPLE FILE SHARING in the view tab. Now go to the folder of th user in documents and settings then right click it and go to properties. go to the sharing tab. you'll see a whole new interface of the tab. go to advanced and delete all the user permissions ALL OF THEM and then change the owner to everyone and apply to al sub folders and files. then add users permission and type also everyone then apply then OK. Enjoy

Also take a look at Majorgeeks. This is one of the best sites online for shareware/freeware and they recently added a Mac section.\n\nhttp://mac.majorgeeks.com/

Alot of applications for Macs come as disk images (.dmg).  Normally, you would mount the image by double clicking the dmg file and dragging the application icon to your Applications folder. (In Finder, click on the "Go" menu and drop down to Applications).
