Brian,
I don't operate in your type of environment nor do I have access to XP SP3 so the best I can say is to look at these two entries in the Terminal Server Team Blog that may or may not be of help...
http://blogs.msdn.com/ts/archive/2007/07/31/problems-using-saved-credentials-with-vista-rdp-clients-and-above.aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/ts/archive/2007/05/04/single-credential-prompt-for-ts-gateway-server-and-terminal-server.aspx
Beyond that you may want to post this question to the microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services new group.
Good luck...

I access many computers remotely via firewall ports. I use the registry
modification to change the RDP port of the host machine to something other
than 3389, then forward the appropriate port in the firewall to that host's
LAN IP. Thus, my RDP session (on my client computer) for Host Computer 1 is
something like this:
gateway.myclient.com:xxx1
Host Computer2, like this:
gateway.myclient.com:xxx2
etc.
However, I want to store different credential for different computers.
Something in XP SP3 changed the way this works, and now, if I change the user
ID or password for my Computer1 RDP session, it changes it for all computers
using "gateway.myclient.com" and seems to ignore the port # as a valid
distinguishing element of the server name.
In addition, I do have cases where I want to store two different sets of
credentials for the same server (in this case actually a terminal server, but
the issue is a client one so remains in the XP RDP realm). For example, I
have a terminal server where one client ID force-runs one app but a different
client ID force-runs a different app. Again, I have my reasons, but after a
certain Windows update on the XP client, the users cannot differentiate & are
forced to re-enter the correct user name for each session, whereas they used
to be able to save the user ID with the session.
Please do not get distracted from my question by telling me not to store
credentials. Suffice it to say that I have my reasons. That is why we have
NTFS encryption, etc, etc.
