the credential supplied conflict with a existing set of credential

Hi there,

it is true the default caching of the user credentials is a pain sometimes
:-)

How I work around it is:

(Once connected to machineA as user1)

get into the command prompt of Windows NT Workstation / Win2K Pro whatever,
and issue

net use
(will produce a list of my connections).
I then choose the one to machineA and issue a

net use \\machineA\whatever_the_share /d
this will remove the connection (/d for delete!)

then you can either get back into the gui and make another connection or
while at the prompt say
net use \\machineA\another_share /user:user2

this will allow you to connect again to the same machineA on whatever share
as the user you speficy in the command line. Or you might just want to map a
drive thus your last command should, instead of the above, be:
net use w: \\machineA\another_share /user:user2
(of course you can use any drive letter not just w:).

Also note that windows 95/98/Me will not allow you to specify a different
username at the command line thus you are slightly stuck with them :-).

HTH,
Regards,
Makis.
