Default Cannot Map Network Drive (After SP1?)

I cannot now, on Vista Home Premium, map a network drive. I have an Infrant
ReadyNAS NV+ that I was able to map 2 shared drives to before SP1. I have
other XP machines on this network, and I'm still able to map drives from
those, but not the Vista.

When I am setting up the mapped drive, a dialog box asks me for a user id
and password for the share, and since I do not have a user id or a password
on the share, I cannot enter one, thus it fails. I am not able to set up a
User Id on the shared drive, only a password. When I tried to set a password
on the share to see if that would work, it did not (Vista still wanted a user
id).

Before SP1, I did not get the dialog asking for the User Id and Password.

What I have tried:
------------------
1. I read this article, where it discussed NTLMV2 authentication and how to
change it to NTLMV1 or LM Chellenge-response, but since I have Vista Home
Premium, I could not do these steps.

2. I have tried to change the Lsa by doing the following, and it does not
help:

a. Run the registry editor and open this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Lsa

b. If it doesn't already exist, create a DWORD value named
LmCompatibilityLevel

c. Set the value to 1



Thanks for any help.

Disable UAC allows login scripts to run:

1. Click Start
2. Click Control Panel
3. Select System and Maintenance
4. Click Administrative Tools
5. Double-click System Configuration
6. Click Continue (if prompted)
7. Select the Tools tab in the System Configuration window
8. Here you can choose Disable UAC or Enable UAC from the bottom of the
listbox
9. Click Launch

The down side, after logging in the Profile user drive didn't map.
10. Reboot and login.
