how to specify a user when connecting to a computer

[OOBradm]

so i want to use the \\Computer method to grab another computers shared folders on my network,


but it keeps popping up a dialoge box with USER: Guest and PASS: xxx and i need to type in a pass. the thing is is that the computer has their guest account disabled! so how do i specify what user goes into the USER: portion of that instead of it being guest? (I cant just change it, its greyed out)

For Windows 2000/XP, use the "net use" command from a command prompt. Open a command prompt, and type net use /? for syntax.
