| | Stored username and password I hope this is the right thread to post. If not please advice Configuration Scenario (Vista Business version) Under User Account / Manage User Password, I've assigned a *.domainname so that when I map a network drive within the same domain, it will use the stored username and password to access resource. This works in XP without any issue. Problem When I then manually assign a map drive, the credential prompt for username and password comes up. Why does this come up even though I have done (2) as above. I want Vista to use the configuration I did above as in XP so any resource requiring password will be obtained from there. I can get round this by not doing the configuration above and go straight to assigning the map network drive. Once the credential prompt comes up, I enter the relevant details (which gets saved in the Stored username and password), and I can see the resource. This would be a permanent setting and Vista will remember the username and password next time I access the same network drive. But am I missing some steps on Vista if I want to rely on my configuration above? Nothing I did was different to XP setup. Is there a fix for this? |
