When you attempt to join the domain it uses the user/password in the
domain that you logged in to the Windows box with.  There is a
"ControlSetnnn" entry for that user in the registry.

You can use the Windows explorer to attach to a share with a different
username/password than the one that you logged in with.  Use it to
disconnect the shares from other Windows objects, then use the Network
Neighborhood component of Windows Explorer to reattach to the resource and
assign a drive letter.
