The only time I have seen this is when I tried to access network shares and used different userids and passwords. If you're not doing that, then I would make sure your Win2K system is completely up to date, or try a Windows XP system.

I have created a bunch (that's a technical term) of shares, and I want to be able to connect to them from my Windows 2000 system so that I can make sure everything is hunky-dory. I will also want to be able to connect to them from a Citrix environment, which will also run on some flavor of Windows. Currently, I am running into a problem when I try to map more than one connection at a time; any further connection attempts are rejected with these messages: "The network folder specified is currently mapped using a different user name and password. To connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share." "The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred: The credentials supplied conflict with an existing set of credentials." I can get three connections active at once by specifying the address in three different ways; i.e., "\\machine.ghs.org\share1 and \\machine\share2 and \\10.10.1.107\share3 . For any more connections than that, I have to delete an existing connection. This is a pain in the keister. Worse, I am wondering if it might cause problems with our Citrix access plans. From what little I can find out, this seems to be a Windows NT issue. Does anyone know if there is a way around it?
