i haven't been able to figure this one out yet. i access files from two other pc's and one other mac wirelessly on my network. i was wondering if it was possible to access those drives automatically when i login. usually i have to browse through my finder > network > groupname > computer name (then connect). i was hoping that i could access those network computers automatically so the drives are sitting on the desktop when i login or when i wake the computer from sleep.

ok i figured out if i drop the folder into the startup items list it automatically mounts the drive on startup. the only thing i don't like about it is that it opens a finder window for the drive automatically. how would i keep the window from opening?
