At my business, I have a Win2k Pro machine running Quickbooks2002 Pro. We
purchased a machine that has WindowsXP Home Edition pre-loaded. I have
setup the network settings on each machine and I am able to see each PC in
the Network Browser, along with the available shares.
Now when I map a network drive which is on the Win2kPro machine, it prompts
me for a username and password. I supply "Administrator" and a password of
"vt", which is the main logon for the Win2kPro Machine. I then select it to
"Reconnect at logon". The share connects great and I am able to browse the
directories fine.
If I restart the WinXp Home machine, when it reboots it goes to the desktop,
if I go to "My Computer" it shows that the mapped drive has not
reconnected, if I double click it, it them prompts me again to enter the
username and password.
This XP Home computer is our front desk counter that handles all sales. How
can I make the XP reconnect the drive everytime without having to go into
"My Computer" and resupplying the username and password everytime the
machine comes up? I need it to automatically connect this share, because
that is where my Quickbooks 2002 Pro data is held. Any help will be
greatful.
Thank you,
Jason
