Win2k Stored User Names and Passwords

You know how Windows XP has that really nice Stored User Names and Passwords thing that will save login credentials (Control Panel... User Accounts -> Advanced -> Manage Passwords)? I'm trying to get access to a locally-attached printer on a remote computer (WinXP SP2) that is hooked up to a domain. The machine that I want access to that printer runs Win2k and will not be logged in to the domain.

Of course, I can enter the domain credentials on the Win2k computer when logged in locally and get full access to the domain printer. Now how would I have this done automatically when I log in? Can I use a script? What might that script look like? Or, is there something similar to XP's Stored User Names and Passwords that I can use so that I would not have to have a login script?

Any help would be appreciated.
 
TweakUi for windows 2000.

I normally don't bother and just plug the entries in the AutoLogon key in the registry, but TweakUI is safer for those who don't want to mess with regedit.
 
No no. I don't need to autologon. I want additional account credentials only. Is this not what the Stored User Names and Passwords box does in XP?

Using Stored User Names and Passwords in Windows XP results in exactly what I want it to do. All I need to know now is how to do the same exact thing in Windows 2000. Does this make sense?
