Cannot view shared drive on the network
I have a user with a french vista laptop. Every other person are joined to the domain and can view other systems (boths XP and Vista) on the network. They can share files and access shared drive. This user however is not joined to the domain and can view any other system on the network. He can view but not access other vista systems. he cannot ping any system on the network and cannot access any shared drive. He can however access network printer. I will like him to be able to access te shared drive, how do i go about it? thanks -- ronkemorawo Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

If the Vista doesn't join the domain it could the permission issue. We also
need to figure out why he can't ping. Can he ping others IP? Vista troubleshootingVista Issues. Networking between Vista and other Windows OS · Other computers can't see Vista ...

I don't want want to join the vista to the domain except as a last resort. The Vista can now ping other devices for some funny reasons now, I removed the firewall though. What permission issue do I have and how do I resolve it please -- ronkemorawo Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

The simple solution is create the domain username with the same password on
the local computer without joining the domain. Or this search result may help. workgroup networking faqsWorkgroup Networking FAQs.

What I did was to install client for microsoft network from my network connection by right clicking on a network connection, choose properties and click install. Follow the prompt and restart your system or just remove disable and re-enable the connection. Thank you all for your contributions -- ronkemorawo Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com
