From: Robert Mattson on 31 May 2010 03:40 Hi Phil, Windows will hold onto and remember the username/pw <-> server mapping to allow you to access multiple shares with the one credential set. You can use the command 'net use' to see the list of cached credentials that your machine is holding onto. You can use the command 'net use \\server /delete' if you see a mapping to \\server\IPC$, or 'net use \\server\sharename /delete' if you see \\server\sharename in the list. If I want to map using two usernames at the one time, I map one to \\server, and another to \\192.168.0.1 as windows uses the machine name as the connection mapping identifier.

To connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share. How should I set things up on the Samba server to be able to do this? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba |
