Windows XP does not remember password when mapping network drive

Problem:

I have to provide user and password when automatically mapping network drive

Solution:

Clear all drive mappings: From a CMD prompt.

net use * /del /Y
net use /persistent:no

Reboot the workstation.

Map network drive saving credentials with this command
net use Z:\\computer_name\share_name /User:DomainUser DomainPassword /persistent:y /savecred
