NO: Issue mounting a share on macOS Sequoia with shell script

Hi All,

Apologies for the non-Omnis question but I have not been able to find a solution to our problem elsewhere.

We have a shell script on one of our servers which used to mount a shared folder from a second server and copy across a log file before unmounting the share.  But since upgrading both servers to Sequoia it is no longer working.  The offending line is:

> mount -t smbfs smb://username:passwd@server.local/SharedFolder <smb://username:passwd@server.local/SharedFolder> /Users/username/MountFolder

In both bash and zsh, the command returns:

mount: /Users/username/MountFolder: invalid file system

Has anyone here come across this issue?

Thanks for any help you can offer,
Graham
