Re: how to add user used for shared folder to local user?!!
The network administrator should create a usergroup.
Give this group permissions on the folder.
Add the users who should be able to use the folder to the usergroup.
If ALL users should be able to use the folder, the default group Everyone can be used for this purpose.

Re: how to add user used for shared folder to local user?!!
thank you for the reply
actually what I did
I have dsl router whith usb port , which has storage serveice ... it allow you to share you hard disk connected to the router ... and you can create a user name to access the hard disk ...
so basicly the user name is not exisit on computer ... you create it on the router .
so how you add that user name which has been created on the router to the computer in shuch away to allow to access to the hard drive.

I'll leave that for the local network experts to answer. I don't know, sorry.

You can use "Control Panel > User Accounts" to create an account on the computer that has the same username and password as the one on the router.

OK, after adding the user name in the controlpanel , how make the shared folder use that user name to access the folder when the user double click the mapped folder. because usually the shared folder will use the current logged in user name and password.

You can specify a username and password when you connect to the remote drive. If you do this from a command prompt then the syntax is:
NET USE H: \\servername\sharename /USER:username password
(replace servername, sharename, username and password with the correct values)
NET USE H: \\servername\sharename /USER:username password
(replace servername, sharename, username and password with the correct values)

Alternatively you can create a username and password on the router that matches the one you actually use on the local PC.

Re: how to add user used for shared folder to local user?!!
This could be because you already have a connection to the router using a different username.
Try
NET USE * /DELETE (this will unmap any existing mapped drives)
NET USE \\routername\IPC$ /USER:username password (this will establish a connection to the router for any future mapped drives)

Re: how to add user used for shared folder to local user?!!
tried this not working !!! , I think I have to map the drive using the windows wizard and supply the user name and password manually.
thanks for your help.
