Connect to Server

Hey,

I am currently running a Mac Mini Server for my office and everyone that connects to it has a user name and password. For some reason on one of my computers every time I try to connect to the server it Defaults to my Apple ID? That is not the correct information. I have checked my keychain to see if it was in there and was unable to find it. I have entered the correct username and password and and checked save to Keychain but when I disconnect and reconnect it defaults back to my apple ID?

How Do I get my Apple ID no to be saved?

Thank You,

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

I'm not using Yosemite.

In Mavericks, I turned off login with Apple ID from System Preferences/Users & Groups. Click on the padlock (lower left). Then click on the Change button next to the Apple ID. And remove the Apple ID from the list. Once I did this, I could log in to the Server's shared files with the client's User ID/password instead of the Apple ID. And the Apple ID never shows up again as the default login.

I don't know what the same procedure is for Yosemite.
