I have an XP machine on a network that won't let me run the net use command to set a printer unless I am an administrtor. If I log in as a standard user it says username/password is invalid. I can go to another PC, log in as the same user and run the net use command with no problem. Any ideas as to what may be causing this. I can execute the net use command to get a listing of the existing mapped drives.

Ryan: some command-line tools in XP require the user to have administrative level privileges on source and/or target computers.
