Using passwords to access network resources
If your computer is a member of a workgroup and is not joined to the network domain, you can still use network resources by entering your domain user name and password.
To take advantage of this feature, connect to the network resource you want to access, such as a folder or file. Windows displays the User name and password dialog box. By entering your domain user name and password, you are supplying the credentials necessary to access the network resources.
To be able to connect to the network resource again without typing your user name or password, select the Remember my password check box. If you want Windows to automatically connect to this network resource again without displaying the User name and password dialog box, select the Don't ask for this password again check box.
