Mount SMB share based on user name at Login

Question

I'm trying to get an SMB share mounted at login for Users where the UNC path is based on the username. I have written a simple script to accomplish this:
set username to do shell script("whoami")
try
mount volume "smb://path/to/files/" & username
end try
The script works. I saved it as an application. I added that application as a login item for the group I want it applied to in Workgroup Manager. When logging in as a memeber of that group it shows up in the login items on the client as Unnknown Unknown and does nothing.
I then put the application on the client and added it as a login item locally and it worked fine.
How can I make this work via Workgroup Manager? I need to run a different script based on what group the user logging in is a member of. It doesn't even need to be a script if there is another solution to get shares mounted with different paths including the username of the user logging in. Thanks for the help. If anything is unclear please let me know.
