Mapping drive on XP to server - what authentication is used? Livin 01-10-2008

Please log in for more thread options
1) Using NET USE or WSHNetwork.MapNetworkDrive (vbscript / wscript)
2) XP Pro (SP2) in a workgroup, not in a domain.
3) Mapping drive to a secured folder within Netlogon share on a DC, in
a domain

When we pass name/pw creds, does it use Kerberos or NTLM (V1 or V2)?

If not Kerberos, is there a way to force it to use Kerberos?

thx!

NTLM.

Not from a non-domain joined system, no.
