I do not want to log on to this network, but want to map a Windows 98 PC to a
Windows 2000 server named 'Server' with a directory called 'Apps' that is
shared. When I put the server name in the path field and click OK, it says
'you must supply a password to make this connection' - Resource:
\\Server\Apps. The password used to log on to the server does not work. If
I look in Network Neighborhood, I can see all the PCs on the network. How
can I make this connection? Thanks.

Unless you log onto the network, you won't be able to.
