XP Systems Keeps Disconnecting From Windows 2000 Server

[Mignonne Clapp]

I have a Windows 2000 Server Computer which houses a few
programs and a HP LasterJet Printer. 15 computers are
attached to this server. We have CALS and Terminal Access
On the server as well. This one computer in particular is
networked to this server. I supplied the user name and
password to get into the server when I first mapped it
from this machine that has WIndows XP on it. There are 4
other computers attached to this server as well with
Windows XP which I dont have this problem with.

Anyway, my problem is this. Everytime I reboot this
Windows XP system, I loose connection to the Windows 2000
Server machine and have to go into network places
reconnect to it and re-enter username and password and
then reinstall the HP printer. I used to not do this. Its
driving me nuts. Does anyone know how I can fix this
problem.

Have you tried using the Stored User Names and Passwords functionality?

The directions are different if you are running a domain on the 2k machine
or not. Try typing in "stored passwords" into Help and Support. That might
help you a bit.
