You can do this with windows xp; I don't know about other versions of
windows. From the control panel click on User Accounts. Chose a user.
In the related task box there is an option called "Manage my network
passwords". From this box you can setup arbitrary
server/username/password combinations.
I don't know of another way to this menu, but I'm sure there are. Its
the "Stored Username and Passwords" manager. A quick google finds
