How to mountain AFP for backup target?

[Dewdman42]

I can't seem to figure out how to get SuperDuper to automatically mount a remove AFP share for the purpose of doing a smartupdate to a bundle there.

How can we cause superduper to mount the AFP share ahead of time, then umount it after; while doing the smart update not to the entire share, but to a sparse bundle that is saved there?

It'll certainly mount it (note that, on Lion, you may need to copy your Keychain entry from the local to the system keychain), but it won't unmount the share.

Im' on SL, but I can't get it to mount at all. ??

You have your credentials for the mount stored in the keychain?

[Dewdman42]

well I think so since I don't have to provide any credentials to mount the drive from finder. how would I know for sure?

OK. So, delete the schedule you have. In the main window, reselect the image or bundle in the "Disk Image..." pop-up (even if it's grey), making sure to set the image type properly.

Reschedule for a minute or two from "now".

Quit SD! and wait to see what happens.
