If you are using a central server as opposed to a peer-group, then you'd be
better with a logon-script to establish connections. More controllable, more
reliable.

Open a commandprompt (type 'cmd' in a Run.. box) and type:

net use driveletter: \\servername\sharename { /user:username password }

{} denotes optional part, only necessary if local logon-credentials don't
match those of account on server.

So for example:

net use Z: \\serv1\documents

will connect the Z: drive to the 'documents' share.

net use /? for more info.

A logon-script is simply a collection of such commands, usually in the form
of a .bat file, run immediately after the user logs-on.
