Do you have to use the home shares? Why not create a separate share
that only they have access to?

Subject: //server/sharename%user question
I have a problem I'm trying to solve. We're using Windows 98 machines
as
the client computers. Every user has a home directory and can access
their files through the [homes] interface.
I would like to be able to access multiple home directories at the same
time in the case where 2 people may be working on a project and need
access to both their home directories at the same time. Windows NT will
let you supply a different user name for each share you access, but it
appears Windows 98 will not (different passwords, but not users). The
documentation seems to say you can use //server/sharename%user, but that
does not seem to work for me.
Could someone tell me how to do this?
Thank you
John Aughey
