Mapping Multiple Shares

When mapping any share, select the Connect using a different user name option. A login and password prompt will appear. Use the username and password required by any secure, restricted shares for all shares. All mapped shares on a single PC must use the same username and password!

If only unrestricted shares are being mapped, then it’s not necessary to set a username and password for shares. Multiple mapped drives to unrestricted shares can exist without a username or password as long as no restricted, secure shares are mapped. If an unrestricted share and a restricted share are both being mapper or accessed, use the restricted username and password for the unrestricted share login by using the Connect using a different user name option. This will allow a Windows PC to access both shares without any problems.
