Hi

You can map using different credentials if you use different names -
at least as far as NT is concerned! Credentials are stored as WINS
names, so 'server1', '10.10.10.10', 'server1.domain.org' and the
like are actually different requests as far as the NT engine goes,
even though pointing to the same box.

However, I do not believe that this was the problem as reported.
