The "H" drive is just a share of the "C" Drive. Apparently their software needs to be setup in this fashion.
If you are trying to connect as Scott, a "Scott" User must be set on the PC you are connecting to.

Ok, the issue was in fact the username was wrong. It shows the user as two words in "About" but by trial and error, it is just one word.
