OS 7-9 network login during boot

Hi,

I've got a Performa, right now running 7.5.5 (previously 8.6). I have connected to a server via the Chooser several times, but now, every time I boot it, a box comes up wanting me to log into the server. I can easily click the cancel button, but is there a way to prevent this from happening during boot-up? Thanks!

Yeah.

Go into the Chooser, and click the server, as if you were connecting to it again. When you input the right user/pass, and you're at the shares window, uncheck the checkboxes.

The checkboxes are there for if you want the Mac to connect to the share every time you start up. Normally connecting through, all you have to do is highlight the share entry (just click on its name), without checking the box. It'll still mount that way.

:)
