If you use ssh with password authentication, then it should be possible
to access authenticated network shares since sshd will be able to create
a login token, assuming the service has been setup correctly.  If you
use public key authentication, the impersonation will fail for network
shares.  You didn't state what kind of authentication you were doing.
