Step 5. You will now be asked to authenticate. Do the following:

  1. Type your username (i.e the username you use to connect to harley)
  2. Type in your Harley password after "Password".
  3. Be sure to uncheck "Save this password in your password list" so others using that computer will not have access to your folder.
  4. Click on "OK".
  5. Click on finish

This will add a network place similar the one below and will let you double click to  access the contents of the the mapped folder. The connection will always be available when you log in .It may require re-authentication everytime you try to connect to it , if you left the "Save password" option un-checked from the step above.
