After connecting to a network share successfully that requires me to log
in (user name and password) through a shortcut or manually (e.g.,
\\192.168.1.123\), how do I disconnect so that when I connect again
without a reboot, I get a password prompt again since I am using shared
machines (Windows 2000 and XP; good to know for Vista too if it is
different).
Thank you in advance.

There are no entries in the list.
I tried with two XP SP2 machines too. I even checked to see my share
session was still working. Is it because the computer I am sharing with
is using Samba on Debian/Linux?

If I understand you properly you just want to drop the connection
credentials so you are required to authenticate the next time. If so,
open a command prompt and tyoe "NET USE". This will show you your
current connections so if you're mapped using a drive letter you could
type "NET USE X: /d" where X: is the drive.
If you are not mapped via a drive you coult type "NET USE
\\192.168.1.123\c$ /d" (or whatever your share name is)"
Also, if you simply connected usijng an IPC it might not show us but
you could always try "NET USE \\192.168.1.123\ipc$ /d" to be sure...

Thank you!!! NET USE \\192.168.1.123\ipc$ /d" was it! Do I assume
this works for 9x, 2000, and Vista as well?

You're welcome.
It should work for all OS I believe. You will likely need to open an
elevated CMD prompt in Vista (Run as Administrator) although I'm not
sure...
Hi
It should work with all windows OS.
Hi
You actually can create small text files on these commands save them with
bat (for batch) extension, and drag an Link/Icon to a place of your choice.
Double click on the Icon and the connection Gone.

How do I disconnect from a network share?
