Hi,

I have a question, Im trying to connect to an XP SP2 computer using
the standard c$ share.
After typing in the address bar \\ipaddress\c$ a dialog box opens and
asks for the password for the computername\guest account.

How can I specify the username I want to connect with so it doesnt use
the guest account.

Thanks in advance,
Dan
