if you only want to connect to shares of the domain, you can use &quot;connect as&quot;.<br />
if you want to do administrative tasks, you can connect to IPC$ (&quot;net use \\servername\IPC$&quot;) to connect as an domain user.<br />
as soon as this connection is established, all connections to this server are done with this domain credentials.<br />

Domain - Workgroup trust

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
