To really help we need to know which operating system you are working with. If Linux you could use http://search.cpan.org/~snck/Linux-Mounts-0.4/Mounts.pm and then call "mount" with Perl's "system" or "exec" functions. Looks like a possibility anyway. I've not implemented this myself. Someone else might have a better idea. Personally I would probably just write a quick shell script utilizing: grep, mount and /proc/self/mounts.
