Is there any utility or method to map a network drive from a Win98 machine to a WinNT/2000 server using a different username to the one you logged on as. Win98 does not support the /user option in the "net use" command.

Hi,
No. You must log into the Win98 machine to have a username to authenticate with and you cant change it once its logged in.
I'm not aware of any utilities that will allow you to overcome this limitation. Perhaps someone else knows of one?
Cheers,
Tim.
