Making network HD act like local HD?

[ventro]

The problem is, every time I put my macbook to sleep or restart it, the network folders disconnect, and I have to re-browse and re-attach them.

Is there any way to have a these network hard discs show up as local hard discs (i.e. discs that don't disconnect every time I restart my computer or wake from sleep) that stay there permanently?

I just created an alias for each drive and it works great for me.

The OS X networking AND it's UI totally sucks Apple better fix this with Leopard or I'm gonna start wondering where their head's at

You can automount them using fstab or the equivalent in BSD Unix.

Oh, grow up. A computer cannot maintain a network connection while it is asleep. You have been given a workaround for this fact. Use it.

Ha! You think I need to grow up? No - OS X needs to GROW UP and give us modern features, technologies and UI so that we don't need stupid workarounds

You're right - the system can't maintain a network connection while it is sleeping, but Apple could program it to reconnect at wakeup time to any networks/shares open before it went to sleep.
