Windows "helpfully" remembers your username and password for the
duration of your login.  A logoff and back in would had sufficed.

What I have found is that Windows remembers username and password per
host, so once you connect to a share on a given host with a particular
username and password, you cannot connect to the same host with a
different username and password.

One work around is to use the "netbios aliases" feature which allows a
server to have multiple names on a network.  This would allow you to
connect to the same server with different user names during the same
Windows session as it would think you are connecting to a different
host.
