On Samba you can try this:
Net Use \\Machine1\share1%John
Net Use \\Machine2\share2%Jane

Thanks to the many people who suggested this.  It works with Samba, but 
doesn't solve the problem when the share is coming from W95/W98/WNT.  Is 
there a workaround/utility which will address that limitation?  For 
instance, odd as it may seem, a Win32 version of smbmnt?

Thanks,

There's an ugly workaround: 

	net use \\ip\share3 /user:username

"ip" means you have to type the ip address of the server.

You might try to put another netbios name for the same server into your local 
lmhosts and enable lmhosts resolution. I did not try this, but chances are this 
could work also.

Hasta la vista,
