NT Server 4.0 and a WinXP home edition can't map drive

[Michael B. Williams]

hi,

I'm tring to set up an NT Server 4.0 and a WinXP home edition. The NT
Server has the acoount name MrSmith on it but I can't map the shared
drive from the XP box as MrSmith I have to use administrator and once
MrSmith logs off it doesn't stay mappped! What do I have to do to
resolve the problem were MrSmith can map the NT Server Drive with out
using the admin account on the server?


Thanks in advance


Michael

I failed to mention that I don't have a problem with this under Win98.
ie when MrSmith logins in to the NT domain he can map the drive and it
stays mapped.
