I agree with Scott. It would be extremely useful to have SD be able to mount a network drive, do it's backup, and unmount.
I was able to add an applescript to unmount the network drive after the backup. (In the Advanced tab, "Run shell script after copy completes"). This solves half the problem. When I tried to solve the other half by adding a shell scrip to mount the network drive with the "Run shell script before copy starts" it doesn't work since this script is run after SD attempts to mount the backup volume! Is there any reason why the "Run shell script before copy starts" option couldn't run this script at the very beginning before SD does any other actions? This would make the shell script much more useful.
