Everytime I start Windows XP Home and need to connect to a netowrk share on
a Windows 2000 machine I keep beeing asked for user name and password.
There's no Save Password box. It happens even when I map the share.
The Guest account is disabled on XP Home machine. I managed to create a
normal account (apart the Administrator) and give it a password too with
"control userpasswords2" trick. I logon with this account.
Is there any way (apart changing my user name and password on the XP Home
machine to match the ones on the Windows 2000) to save this password
somewhere?

Create a user account on the Windows 2000 computer that is
identical in user name and password to the one you use to logon
to Windows XP.

Good luck
