devicename and is ignored when the remote resource does not prompt the user for
credential presentation automatically. /savecred, when used with password *,
only caches those credentials for the duration of the logon session, rather than
saving them in Stored User Names and Passwords. Further, /savecred is only
available in Windows XP Professional. It is ignored in Windows XP Home
Edition."</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
