Login Items Remote Volume, always open window on Boot

Question

I've set up connecting to a drive on a network, and then dragged the volume into the Accounts/login items. So that everytime it reboots it connects to theses volumes, however each time it does it also opens a window for each of them. I have ticked the hide box next to them, but neither makes any difference.
Thanks
Matt

Yes, that is one way to do it. I usually make a shell script and package it as an application using Platypus.
To do so you would use a text editor (I prefer pico) to create a script file with the .command extension and make it executable. The syntax is as follows:
mkdir /Volumes/yourvolume
mkdir /Volumes/anothervolume
mount_afp afp://username:password@server/yourvolume /Volumes/yourvolume
mount_afp afp://username:password@server/anothervolume /Volumes/anothervolume
Of course you can leave out username:password@ and you can use mount_smb as well as other protocols.
