Re: Credentials not remember when connecting to network shares

Sounds like her password on her local machine is mismatched with AD.
Try having the user lock the workstation, then unlock it with the correct AD
password, then reboot.

Yeah, I'm confused too. I can't find any reason for her problem.

She logs onto her PC with her domain credentials. She can access file
shares
and printers on other servers with no problems. She connects to this
problem
server and is prompted for her username and password. She enters the exact
same username and password she used to log on and gets access to the
problem
server's shared files and printers and can use them for the rest of her
session. If she then logs off and back on with her domain credentials and
tries to access the problem server, she is again prompted for her username
and password. For some reason, this one server is not recognizing the
token
that is generated for her at logon, although her credentials do work ift
she
enters them when prompted by the server.

Weird stuff.

What
happens if you map hardcode a mapped drive with the users credentials and
password? Will it reconnect?

We tried accessing it with the UNC path and through My Network Places
with
the same result. Yes the server is part of the same domain as the user
and
her PC.

How is this user attempting to access the share? Mapped drive? Run
command
\\servername\sharename? Does this server reside in the same domain?
