Get server of AFP volume

I’ve been digging and can’t seem to figure out if there is a way to access the “Server” attribute of a mounted afp volume. If you do a “Get Info” on an afp mounted share, you’ll see a property under the “General” tab that is called “Server” and lists a value similar to “afp://server/share”. I can’t seem to figure out where, if anywhere, that information could be accessed. I’m willing to use a shell script or AppleScript to access the information. Can anyone help me with this one? Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

Dang, I always forget about System Events. That’s exactly what I needed, thanks so much!
