Yes, I have mount_smbfs working perfectly. The question is, where do I put
this command so it executes each time the machine boots.

Since I have both a UNIX command-shell version working, and an apple-script
working (but on a more limited basis), is there a way to call (or start) a
bash shell from AppleScript?

That way I can just put the script in the required place (as mollw mentioned
earlier) and simply execute my bash script which mounts the shares where I
want.

Thanks!
