Cannot Map Network Drive by Password

I am using win98 for the workstation and have NT4.0 on the
server. I could use my network password to log on this
workstation and access the software stored on the P: drive
on the server without any problem until I tried to enter a
different user ID and its related password to log on to
this same workstation.

Now the problem started here. The time I wanted to access
the software on drive P:, I was asked to map network
drive, which seemed lost when I entered a different user
name and password on the same computer.

When I tried to map the network drive, I was prompted to
enter network password, no matter what passwords (which
include all the possible ones that have been used by me or
others) I entered, I got the same error message, which
says "The passwork is incorrect. Try again."

Can anyone please help me here? I appreciate your time and
expertise.
Ron

check your account , to me it sounds like the second user doesn't have
rights to the P: drive
