VPN with Vista - cached credentials

Hi,
I have a Watchguard firewall and using MS PPTP to connect to my network.
Its works fine, but when trying to access resources, the VPN account is used
instead of my Windows Login. I log onto the PC with my domain network
password.
Already tried to clear cached credentials from Control Panel. But when I
reconect to VPN, they return
I am sure that many people are having this porblem. Please help.

Cached CredentialsUse "net use * /d" command to delete all mapping drives.
Then use "net use \\servername password /u:domainname\username" to cache the
credentials. Relogon. ...

Thanx, but the solution will not work when the user change his password.
