Sorry if this has been covered ...

SuperDuper is working great for me and is faithfully backing up each evening. Now I would like to tweak my setup so SD can automatically mount and unmount the required volumes.

Here are the 2 scenaria that I would like to address:

1- scheduled backup to an external disk connected via firewire. This is a smart clone of the entire partition.
2- scheduled backup to a network disk. This is a smart clone to a disk image located on the network volume.

Part of the issue I suspect will have to do with permissions. SD requires the disk to be mounted in order to set up the scheduled backup. Should I mount the required volume as an admin user? Will it matter who is logged on when SD runs? Does SD run as an admin user?

Thanks,
Martin
