    This looks like syntax for share level security. You should be able to do
    something similar as a Domain member with this syntax:

    NET USE \\servername\sharename password /USER:domain\username

    if password is missing you will be prompted.

            Subject: UNC and username specification

    Hello,

    Is it possible to specify the username and password to connect to the
    filer's CIFS service in the UNC path?

    Several years ago when I was running SAMBA on a Linux box, I was able to
    connect from Windows to a share with this syntax:

       \\servername\sharename%username:password

    The ":password" was optional, if it was not specified then Lan Manager
    would come back and prompt for the password specified in "%username".

    Thanks!
