Finding the path of a mounted network share on Mac OS X
macos, mount, networking, uri
Solution
Try /Volumes/PUBLIC
(Or whatever Get Info tells you after looking at the file with Finder)
That's what worked for me.
Problem
I'd like to find out where a network share is mounted when the mount command fails like this: ``` $ mkdir ~/share $ mount_afp afp://server/share ~/share mount_afp: the volume is already mounted ``` This looked promising... ``` $ mount ... snip ... afp_000000004oMw0q76003DF78u-1.2d000006 on /Volumes/share-1 (afpfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by username) afp_000000004oMw0q76003DF78u-2.2d000007 on /Volumes/share-2 (afpfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by username) ``` It seems like there should be a way to map those long `afp_000...` numbers to URIs... Is there any way to determine where a volume is mounted given its afp:// URI? I'm actually executing these commands with Python's subprocess module, so if there's a module or library that can do it that would be acceptable as well.
