Lost my IFS file shares access

I had three drive letters mapped to 3 different IFS file shares -
working fine for years.

Now, today, I see that there is a "question mark" showing on the Windows
desktop icons I use to get to those shares.

Get the message "the drive connection is unavailable"

Something got whacked or changed. I know we had a consultant enforce a
windows password policy last week. When accessing the IFS file share,
what ID and password is it expecting (and in what format) - an Iseries
ID or a Windows ID ?
