Monitoring network folder

I am very new to Mac and Hazel. I am monitoring a folder on my network and is working fine. The problem I ran into was I took my MacBook to work and when I came home I checked to see why Hazel was not processing my folder and saw this:

Scan folder is not accessible. Exiting.
2014-02-05 19:59:41.424 HazelHelper[214] Worker process for folder /Volumes/Documents/Scans did not check in.

When I browsed to the folder manually then Hazel starting working again. I know why it is happening but just don't know what to do

I guess my question is how should I handle that. I was hoping it would just start working again once I was home.

Thanks for any help you can give.

I'm afraid I don't know why it's happening. Could you enlighten me?

It's like when I leave my network where my monitored folder is stored (server at home) and return I have to re-connect to the server before it starts monitoring again, like I have to initialize the connection first.

Does that help?

So it doesn't connect until you connect in Finder? That is probably to be expected. Hazel doesn't do that for you. You can try a program like Sidekick to automatically mount the drive for you depending on the network connection at the time.
