Network connection Windows Adv 2000 server and wkstn using xp home

[Sytkeepr]

I teach a computer lab in an elementary school. We have a server with
Windows Advanced Server 2000. Our workstations are XP Home edition (don't
ask me why). I have set up two different users in the lab, both with admin
permissions. My question is on one user account at a workstation, I can
access our server without having to go through a login/password window. On
the same workstation, under the other user account it asks me to give a login
and password before connecting to the server. I am no expert with the server
(nor the workstations for that matter). There are several folders on the
server which are shared that I cannot see. I am baffled. Thanks in advance
for the help.

One easy solution is to create an identical ID/Pass on the server that
matches the ID/Pass not shared.

Thank you Mark. Let me add one thing. When I explore the network places
from a workstation, I can use my login/pass when prompted to view the server
shared files. My problem is I want it to remember the ID/Pass and not ask
for it again after rebooting. Any ideas?
Thanks

Open IE, tools menu, Options, Security tab, Intranet icon, 'custom level'
button, and scroll down to the logon settings. One of the options is to use
the same credentials.
