And the same passwords?  If you create a share on the server (*not* your
CVS repository :-) ), can your co-worker map it as a drive without being
asked for a username and password?  If they can't, you've found your
problem - tinker until that step works.

Irrelevant under SSPI, I think (never tried it).

I assume you don't have domain accounts, so this is in a workgroup
environment?
