Cached Credentials on a Workgroup PC
We have several XP Pro PC's which are not domained, however do have network connections.
Users logon locally to each machine and then connect to shares via a UNC. They are then prompted to enter there domain logon credentials to access the network resources.
I have an issue whereby a user has accessed a UNC share after authenticating with their credentials, however these details have been cached. Subsequently other users can open the UNC without having to authenticate which is something I do not want.
Firstly, where are these cached credentials stored and is there a way to delete them. Secondly how do I ensure that user's are asked to authenticate to network resources each time they log onto the machines.

The above procedure did clear the list, I assume the particular user must have selected the option to save their password.
Is there a way to either automatically clear the list when users log off from the machine or prevent users from having the option to save their passwords when connecting to a UNC
Thanks.
