4. When I click the Shared Storage Drive icon in
Network Neighborhood, I’m asked for a password.
This can happen in the following situations:
•
Your Windows Logon name is recognized by the Shared
Storage Drive, but your password is not
. If you have a
different password for your Shared Storage Drive and you
don’t remember it, you will need to change your password. If
you are not the administrator of your Shared Storage Drive, ask
your administrator to change your password for you.
•
Your Windows Logon name is not recognized by the
Shared Storage Drive, thus only providing you guest
access rights.
If you are not the administrator of your Shared
Storage Drive, ask your administrator to create a user account
for you. To make your Shared Storage Drive logon name easy
to remember, use the same name and password as your
Windows Logon.
