I am on a network, where I am trying to use a shared printer, that is on an XP professional computer (this computer is not the server). Is there anyway that I can save the password in my set up, so that when I logon to the network, I have instant access to this computer. Whenever I restart my computer, I have to go....run \\computer name and then it comes up with a username and password, which I put in, but there is no where to save this

Please help, it is getting really annoying now!
 
You can make a login script to help you do this.

Check out the net use command

Here's an example

net use W: \\192.168.200.30\C$ yourPassword
/user:192.168.200.30\yourUserName /persistent:no

This will map the computer's C drive onto your computer as W. Pick any
letter that doesn't have a drive attached to it.

Put that command in a batch file. Something like myStartup.bat and stick
that in your startup group.

Good luck.

Dave
