Sublime 2003 login problem

Windows 2003 SBS server with a Windows 98 workstation.
There is a single user who, when logging in from the
workstation into the domain, logs in SUCCESSFULLY.
However, the login script fails to map any drives and prompts
for a share password. All password attempts fail. Attempts to
browse the network or to manually map a drive to the server
share all fail.

Administrator can login from this same Windows 98
workstation without a problem and map drives successfully.

Sounds like the user account, doesn't it? But, the same
"probelmatic" user account can login from other workstations
(windows 98, 2000, XP) and map drives without a problem.

Has anyone seen this before and is there a fix?

Win98 workstation .........

Thanks for the reply Mik. I did also suspect the .PWL and did
try removing all .PWLs from the workstation is question but,
that wasn't it.

Why can one account access shares just fine from this
workstation but not the other? Yet the same account can
access shares on the server from any other workstation just
fine. The problem makes no sense.

Peter,

My next take on this would be to change the network card.

Don't ask me for the reason, as it does not seem logical on the
surface - it is just past experience of similar problems.
