[QUOTE="Pete Boyd, post: 7171603"] Hi All, My XP Pro workstation is a member of an NT4 domain where I authenticate and map drives. I also map a drive to another server which is in a Win2003 Active Directory. I have the same username on my NT domain and the AD but different passwords. When I log in, my 'local' network drives reconnect automatically but not the one on the Win2003 server. Instead I get the popup in the system tray "Could not reconnect network drives....". If I go into explorer and attempt to access the disconnected drive, it prompts for my credentials then reconnects. Can I get this to prompt me when I log in like NT4 used to instead of putting me into Windows then notifying me it's failed to reconnect? I suspect the problem occurs due to the different passwords but conflicting password policies prevent me from having the same passwd on both systems. TIA Pete [/QUOTE]
