After spending more time than I would have liked trying to figure out how to get any network shares/mounts to show up on my Desktop like they did before I upgraded to Leopard, I finally figured it out. It is possible and it is easy to set up. If you want to have your servers to appear as icons on the desktop:
Click anywhere in the Finder
Choose the Finder menu > Preferences
Click on the “General” tab
Check the “Connected servers” option
