While this will work, I'd be concerned about security since this will put a userid/password that is valid on the domain in clear text.

Also, it will be clumsy to support when the password expires...

We have some laptops that come and go within our Server 2000/2003 network. How can we provide the laptops access to one specific shared folder without having the laptops log on to the domain? And, btw, it's always the same laptops. These aren't laptops that come into our place and use our internet. We have some of those, too, but we don't need to give any of them network access.

thank you,
