How do I get windows xp home edition to store password information when accessing a server?
When I connect to a share via UNC, i am prompted for a username and password but the check box to save them isn't available. Is there a way to enable or another solution?

I can simply add the username and password to the end of the mapping? Do I need to put a colon in anything in too?
sorry this is the full syntax
net use r: \\servername\sharename /user:domain\username password
net use r: \\servername\sharename /user:domain\username password

Thanks, this is not a domain but I am assuming I can put the workgroup name in there instead. Correct?
you need to change the server name sharename domian username password and the drive leter if you want

net use r: \\"servername"\"sharename" /user:"domain"\"username" "password"
