SBS 2008 R2 Remove Machine AND Mapping Network Drive

I just refurbished a user's computer and am trying to reconnect it to the domain. I got as far as getting it to log onto the server but I am having trouble in two areas.



1) Getting it permissions to access the network drives (aka mapping a network drive on the client machine requires me to give it acess and I cannot find how to do that).



2) Several ghost machines have shown up in my Network folder. I know which one is the real workstation, so now I want to delete the ghost machines, and honestly, everything looks completely different than what I am used to.



Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.
