Adding a windows 2000 workstation to a network.

[Guest]

I think I'm missing something.
The 2000 Workstation(WS) can see the network only when
you log into it with administrative user/pw. However, on
this WS if you logon to the network without using the
admin user/pw you cannot map a drive to the servers share
without it prompting you for an admin user/pw. Other
workstations on the network are configured the same as
the 2000 workstation, yet the other workstations can
logon the network and map a drive to the servers share
without being prompted for an admin user/pw. I believe I
missed a very simple, but critical step in setting the
workstation up.

Do you have a domain? If not, you'll need to make sure you're using the
exact same local credentials as the user account defined on the server....
