problem accessing network share

I have a win2003 server with network shares on it. When I log onto my
computer it uses a username and pass that exist on that machine so I can
access the shares without entering any user or pass. However, when I attempt
to access a share that I do not have rights too I get an error message. What
I would prefer to see is a prompt for a username and pass. How can I
configure my server to prompt instead of just straight denying access?

hi,
before try to access a network share where you don't have access run the
comand "net use * /delete" -that will unmap all network resurces that you
use. You cand have 2 or more mapped network shares from the same server with
different usernames. and of course you have to delete any saved stored
passwords on that server from your workstation.

Thank you but I am not working with mapped drives.

Here's an example:

I am logged into my computer as scott
I connect to \\server\scott - everything works fine
I attempt to connect to \\server\notscott - receive message denying access

What I want is to be prompted for a different user/pass

Is your network set up with AD?
