Mounting smb drives on Mac without username and password to manually type in.

I have been working on mounting drives with this script in Kace as an online shell script.


#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/osascript -e 'mount volume "smb://<servername>/sharename"'
exit


Whenever I run it with the proper names filled in above it prompts for the root password.  Is there some way I can do this on a machine that is joined to active directory and it just mounts and shows up on the desktop?


Thanks



It prompts me for the root password.

The linux samba command would be
smb://user_name:password@server_name/sharename
