Here is what i got from the Carbon-dev list


I'd guess it just uses AFP to ask the server:

From <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Networking/Conceptual/AFP/UsingLoginCommands/chapter_3_section_1.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40000854-CH4-SW1 >:

The AFP client sends the FPGetSrvrInfo command to obtain server information. The FPGetSrvrInfo command returns server information including the following server parameters: server name, machine type, AFP version strings, UAM strings, volume icon and mask, a bitmap of flags, and optionally, a list of available Open Directory names. For descriptions of server parameters, see FPGetSrvrInfo in the Reference section.

I will post my code here as soon as i'm done, if this is the proper solution, it does makes sense.

regards

Sandro Noel.

Thanks guy's i'll ask in the Carbon-dev list.

 Sorry - I didn't see the "remote" part of the requirement at first.
After spending some time searching the docs, tech notes, and even some
headers for this myself (because it's an intriguing question), I
couldn't find any good leads either. I'll second the suspicion that
Carbon will likely be needed, but there doesn't appear to be a
well-documented way to do so.

 If you wouldn't mind following up on this thread with any references
you might get on carbon-dev (for those who aren't subscribed), it
would be greatly appreciated.
