Bonjour Mounter	Feb 7 2009	DELHUX It doesn't seems to work entirely. It does mount my specified mount points at login and when I manually tell the program to do so, but it fails to find servers when they have dropped and re-joined the network. The program will show a status of "online" for mounts that have dropped off (and are available again) but are not re-mounted. If I toggle the "online" status to "offline", the program will immediately re-mount the share in the Finder. I would donate if the product worked, but it doesn't--not for me. All I want it to do is re-mount my specified mount points as they become available. I can add the mount point to my login items and manually reconnect using the Finder. The only functionality this app offers over the default OS is the ability to automatically detect and re-mount shares as they become available. Unfortunately, there is no Help system, no official web site (that I can find, anyway), and support (via email) is only for people who have donated. I can't in good conscience donate to this program, because it acts like a scam. It has purported functionality, but I can only assume it is broken--or is it a brilliant way to get money from "Donors" rather than "Customers"? Curious. Not sure about the legal distinctions between the two, but the programmer may be absolved of any responsibility for his product's alleged functionality. (Version 2.0.3)		+1

Bonjour Mounter

Feb 9 2009

SANDRO NOEL It's regretfull that you have a bad experience with BM.

I have not had the time to bring up a help file, or setup a site for BM until now

because I've been busy implementing new features in the software.

But it is being designed. and will show up at some point in the future.

As far as support goes I have always payed close attention to my users request.

if you would of tried to send an email instead of jumping the guns, and complaining like a school girl you probably would of gotten a reply within the hour.

BM Detects bonjour broadcasting servers only.

if your FTP server is not bonjour enabled, BM will not detect it's presence.

now will it do it for SMB servers that are not bonjour enabled.

thus the name "bonjour mounter"

----------------

If the software was a scam like you say, do you really think I would waste my time

begging for 10$ donations? PLEASE. I have better things to do.

I would charge 50$ for it and have you use the software only after you payed me, without a trail, or a preview like most software vendors do.

Donations are a way for people who enjoy the software to show the developer appreciation for it's work that is all, and honestly, I've gotten quite a bit of donations, to my greatest amazement.

PLEASE PLEASE by all means, if you do not like the software DELETE IT and move on.

I really do not care for your personal petty cash.

I will not be insulted by being called a fraud.
