Can you net view \\remotepcipaddress? If that also receives system error 53,
that could be the security software blocks accessing.

Bob,

net view \\remotepcipaddress receives system error 53 (network path not
found). Your reference to security software blocking accessing, do you mean
Norton Internet Security or something else?

My XP professional standing next to the Vista machine performs the tasks
without flaw at the same time.

Any ideas to a work around?

It could be Norton or any firewall. For troubleshooting, you may try to
start the Vista with clean boot.
