asked on

networking an xp workstation with an sbs2008 server

we have a Microsoft XP workstation which has 4 network interface cards in it. The primary card for various reasons, cannot be changed, and we cannot add it to the domain.

Is there a way that I can use one of the other network cards, to map a drive to a shared area on our sbs2008 server, by passing the username and password with the "net use". command?

I have done this before but never where the workstation was not in the same workgroup or domain??

The subnet will also be different to the primary card, so I was wondering about whether there would be any problems routing through to the server shared area?

Any advice would be appreciated.
