If you try connecting to the NetApp via IP address, you should be able to log in with a second set of credentials, while keeping your first connection (via name).

You can only have 1 set of logon credentials for a file system connection (UNC or Mapped drive) to another CIFS system per logon session (Terminal Server handles logon sessions differently). If you're connected to \filer\share as nlehrer with your regular account, your credentials will be domain\nlehrer until you disconnect from that system (closing a window doesn't necessarily disconnect you).
To connect to the same filer with another logon account, you need to unmount all your connections. You can do this with Windows Explorer (Disconnect Mapped Drive) but that doesn't always show all the connections, so I recommend that you use NET USE to display your drive connections, then use " net use \filer<sharename> /d " for each connection to the filer (including ipc$).
You can at that point use Windoze Explorer to map a network drive using other credentials (you can not do this from a 9x client) or use " net use \filer\ipc$ /user:domainname\username password " (you can skip the password if you'd like & you should be prompted).

: hi, : : i am just bringing up an f760 cluster with cifs and nfs. i had just configured : my shares and went to edit some of the files in \etc with wordpad and found that : i was getting access denied, but could edit them when going thru nfs and using : vi. : : after checking a bunch of things it turned out that something wasn't happy about : the way i was accessing the files - using the SU cmd in the nt 4 res kit. : normally i log into my nt machine locally and if i want to do any domain admin : stuff i just open a cmd window and SU to my domain admin acct. saves me from : rebooting or using another machine. in this case i can SU and use srvmgr : against the filer with no problem, but actually editing files that require : administrator privileges doesn't work. i do have the correct mappings in : usermap.cfg and editing does work properly if i do a "normal" domain admin : login. : : any ideas? anybody ever get this to work? : : i really like being able to use SU this way and [in the past] it made it easy to : test access against other ids without moving to another machine or rebooting? : thanks. : : -- : : : regards :
