samba - Feb 2011 - multiple samba accounts

Is it possible on a windows computer to connect to a linux server with two samba
accounts, simultaneous?
My scenario is, I want to create two mapped network drives on a windows computer
to two separate home directories on a linux server, but I want to require one
samba user name and password to connect to "home directory A" and a
second samba user name and password to connect to "home directory B."

As it stands right now, as soon as I connect to the first mapped network drive
with the first samba account, when I go to create the second mapped network
drive the windows computer tries to use the first samba account, instead of
prompting for the second samba account.

Thanks

If you're using just simple file sharing with authentication, then yes.

Connect the first share using the machine name, connect the second share 
using the machine's IP address.

The first home share I think is mapped at domain login!?? Let's say S:!?
Do you use a logon script? So the second ,or the first too, home share could
be mapped from the command prompt
Or script like this: net use R: \\otherserver\otherhome passwordotherserver
/user:yourotherserver-domain\usernameotherserver
Good Luck
