Your corp config has very possibly removed the ability to define
cached credentials else defining homedomain\youraccount as
what should be used when going to a machine in *.yourhome.local
domain would be one route you could use.
As it likely is, if you had a batch file that issued
\\server1\printer$
\\server2\share1
or whatever for the couple main servers you would be accessing,
then once you had logged in to the returned prompts with your
(home) domain account then future accesses to these machines
would piggyback over these established connections and so seem
fairly transparent.
