Domain Controller -- Logon Scripts

Sorry.  I may have phrased that better.  I DO login on the 95 machine as say
the user 'jeff'.  This works and the 95 box promptly connects to the Samba box
as guest a.k.a nobody.  The 95 box then downloads/runs the login script on the
local (95) machine.  My problem is when the scripts run all the "net use z:
\\sureal\scratch" type commands are trying to map drives as 'nobody'.  This is
semi-ok for the scratch shares but not for home dirs.  

I've tried specifying the user name in the logon scripts but it keeps asking
for the password which won't work (ie. it's not looking in the pwl files ). 
I could probably make it work by including the passwords in the logon scripts
which would be extrememly stupid since the netlogon share is publicly available.
