The when i restart it starts all over again.
The user account information on the XP machines are the same as the accounts listed on the 2000 machine. So why is it not automatically logging into the share? I don't have this problem on any other mixed offices. Usually if the username and password matches on both machines there is NO additional login required, what am I missing?
