A number of suggesting came up on how to get the Mount Volume XCMD (or 
is it a function?) to work under System 7:

1.  Create alias to AppleShare in the System Folder - Failed - XCMD does not
know how to resolve aliases.

2.  Have two copies of AppleShare in the System Folder, or place AppleShare
in the system folder and an alias in the extension folder - Failed - the
XCMD accessed AppleShare, and almost worked; it was able to logon to the server,
but was not able to mount any of the volumes; error "Volume "volume_name" was
not found on server "server_name".".

Any other ideas?  Any one good enough at programming of AppleShare XCMDs to
fix Mount Volume?  Any one at Apple know of anything like this?  Does HyperCard
2.1 have a built in command to mount remote volumes?
