[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 1396003, member: 11094"] If you create a folder in the /Volumes directory with the same name of the folder you are trying to direct map before you attempt to mount it with Automator or mount_smbfs then you will get a direct connection to the subfolder. However the side bar will still show the computer name and the root share, if you use the view computer option in the Finder, or CMD+SHIFT+C you will see the subfolder is the mount point. As well as on the Desktop if the show mounted network drives is selected in the Finder preferences. [/QUOTE]
