First, I know enough about computers to really mess them up without much effort and against my better judgement and common sense I agreed to help a friend who owns a small business.

She has two computers networked together with a crossover cable, one has 2k3 small business server as an os and the other is XP pro sp2, both are used as workstations, she has a patient database program that can run on multiple workstations and share a single database, the database itself is on the 2k3 box, when I installed the program on the XP box I had to map to the database on the 2k3 box and everything works just fine but whenever the XP box is rebooted it loses the mapping or whatever you want to call it and you have to remap the drive, my question is, is there anyway to make this permenant?

Second question, the printer is shared through the 2k3 box and whenever one is shut down the XP box must reconnect to the 2k3 box, the office ladies would like very much not to have to do this, is there anyway to automate it? Say with a script? And how would I do that?
Thank you to whoever can help and while I may not know much about computers I've been fixing Fords for 20 years and if I can answer any questions for you I would be happy to.
