    Some server administrators set share drives to auto disconnect users after a set time of inactivity (ie fifteen minutes). As a user it’s super frustrating to connect to a server every time you need access. I’ve written an AppleScript that first checks to see if the share is mounted, if it is mounted it does nothing; however if the share is not mounted the script will auto-mount it. Let’s first start out by downloading the script from here: Timeout Apple Script (ZIP) After your download is complete unzip and open the script the script (double click it to launch the OS X script editor). To being using this script you will have to know: the IP Address of the server you are connecting to, the name of the folder you want to connect to, your username, your password, and the amount of time in seconds that you want between connection attempts (idle time). All of the items in purple in the picture below are the ones you are going to need to edit (Make sure to remove all the parenthesis - completely replace everything in purple). (more…)

    Si te fastidia que algunos administradores de redes desconectan los discos en red tras un periodo de inactividad, este script que The Apple Blog nos trae te ayuda a mantenerlos conectados. El script primero ve si el disco está apropiadamente montado, y si no lo está, lo conecta automáticamente. El script lo puedes bajar aquí. Lo único que tienes que hacer es reemplazar los comentarios en rojo : la dirección IP del servidor, nombre del disco que conectas, el usuario y la contraseña. Como cualquier script en el editor, lo guardas como aplicación.
