Default Folder sharing problems

Hi all,

I can't seem to get folder sharing working between my home PC (Vista
Business) and my work laptop (XP). I guess part of the problem could be that
the home PC belong to the WORKGROUP workgroup while my laptop belong to a
domain. Is there any way I can get folder sharing workling?
I can actually access shares on my laptop from my home PC, but not the
opposite.

I've also set up a VPN connection to my home PC, but I can only use Remote
Desktop (can't access shares over VPN either).

Thanks,
Marcus

If you create the same username with the same password, you should be able
to access the Vista Public folder. or check this search result.

Hi
This type of software let you create few configuration to switch between
parameters that are needed to work with different networks.
