[K12OSN] Re: OT-Samba/Win2k Problem

[Carl Keil]

I tried the trick of not "ticking off the box:" that says "reconnect at 
logon" and guess what?  My drives don't reconnect at logon, so I have to 
do it manually every time.  How do I get the G and H drives to reconnect 
at logon, but as a different user that what I'm logged in as?  Any ideas?

Thanks,

ck
