Default Different user credentials


Hi,
This is a strange behavior:
When i try to connect to a share (Say \\Comp1) i get a Credentials screen
and all is OK
But when i try to connect to a share that has different permissions (Say
\\Comp1\ShareB), access is denied and i don't get promped for credentials,

Is this normal behavior ?

Default Re: Different user credentials

Pretty much so, yes. You can only use one set of credentials to connect to
a remote computer. So if you connect to \\Comp1\ShareA using Name1 and
Password1, you will also connect to \\Comp1\ShareB with the same name and
password. There's no way to alter this behaviour - it's been the same since
about Windows 95, I think.
