Hello folks,

I have an issue here and maybe some one out there has the
answer. On Windows xp pro , we are not able to get
windows to authenticate to a network drive that is
password protected when the computer starts up. Ideally
what I would like it to do is to look some where in the
registry for the password, or a file on the PC. This
issue is with our Samba (Unix) server at a remote
location. On widows 95 this was not an issue, windows
would remember who you were and what password you used.
How can I get XP to behave this way?

Thanks for your help
