Default Windows XP Pro computer forced to login as guest on a share

All I want is the login screen to pop up so I
may enter a valid username and password. Anyone have an idea?


How about connecting to the share through the Windows Explorer
Tools, connect to share command (may have slightly different
wording, but I'm working on a non-English machine currently).

The dialog box has an option to use a different personality to
connect to the share.

Another choice would be the NET USE command in a command line
window.

The question remains, why it doesn't work in a more
straightforward fashion. Please have a look at

trouble spots.
