Password Protecting a Folder in Windows NT 4.0

I hope you folks can help. I have a Windows 2000 Professional PC (SP4) connecting to a Windows NT 4. 0 workgroup Server (no domain. ) I log in as Jody on my workstation (with admin rights), and my server has a Jody account with admin rights.

I have a Windows 2000 Professional PC (SP4) connecting to a Windows NT 4.0 workgroup Server (no domain.) I log in as Jody on my workstation (with admin rights), and my server has a Jody account with admin rights. No problem. I
can see the NT shares.
 
But one share called "Zips" I only want to access that as a password protected share (similar to share access level in Win98). So I made a "Zips" user in NT and in 2000. I assigned the admin rights to Admin and Zips in NT, and gave full access to Zips in 2000. However I cannot make a logon box come up to attach to it. When I try to add access in 2000, it says:
 
"This set of credentials conflicts with an existing set of credentials"
 
What I want to do is log in to the network as Jody, yet attach to the zips folder as another user in the same login.
 
Any ideas?
 
Cheers,
Jody Thornton
