mlmounted drive Aliases problem

Hi All,

I am facing a very strange problem. In my program I mount a network
drive and transfer some data on the drive. The problem is, sometimes
(I acutally cannot figure out when exactly) the drive is mounted with
an aliases. This creates problem in my program as i use the fix path.

One more thing I observed is, under /Volumes the original mount name
is still present. If I do "rm -r" on that directory the mounting
starts working properly again with original directory name as mount
name. (eg, if I mount drive with name "music" in /Volumes it comes
/Volumes/music. But when aliase is created, /Volumes/music still
remains there and /Volumes/music1 is created automatically. Though in
finder it show "music" as mounted name.)

I am trying this for 2 months now and still cant get the solution. I
really need it. Please help if someone has faced this problem.

Regards,
Aalok
