I don't think you do anything.
If the server shares the folder and it's on you net and
you are in a group of users that have access it shows up
on your MY Network Places with the share name given to
it. You can only do what the permissions on the server
allow,like read, create, delete.

Setting that up on the server or an XP PRO machine is a
differenct story.

Simply use from commandline:

NET USE \\server\share

or NET USE \\server\share /user:Mydomain\Myuser
to connect using other than current credentials.

After this however you can use the share by pointing to
it using e.g. \\server\share\mydocument.doc
or explore the share.

To unmount use NET USE \\server\share /d

This kind of mounting is sometimes used to access the
share using specific credentials as mentioned above.

Hope this will help you.

OK, and how is this entry going to show up in "My Network Places" or NetHood?
Thanks!
