Default Access NT4 shares from Vista

Small peer-to-peer network. One NT4SP5 Wkstn. box that
can be accessed from every other machine (95, 98, 2K)
but the Vista laptop. Asks for user name & password but then
declares it invalid (it isn't). Always wants to prepend User
Name with Computer Name, but even when this is deleted,
does not allow access.

Any ideas?

Yes, I believe that was the case. I will check
again (I'm at home now) tomorrow.

If that was true, what advice might you have for me?

It is name resolution issue. You may want to setup WINS server. Or this
search result may help.

System ErrorsSystem error 52 - You were not connected because a duplicate
name exists on the network. System error 53 - The network path was not found

OK, went back to the office to get the error #.

It is System Error 5, a Permissions thing.

Please note that this NT4 box is fully browseable by
95OSR2, 98SE, W2KSP4 and XP SP2.

Only the Vista Home Prem. can't get in. That would
indicate the problem's with the Vista machine?
