Network Share Vista/XP
For months I was able to drop a XP machine onto the network and access a
shared drive on my Vista machine without having to log the XP machines in with my username and password, now I am unable to do it, keeps saying \\Server\D is not accessible I have formatted the computers and tried everything but still no go. Any idea's?

Network Share Vista/XP
In the XP command, run this command: net share. Then ipconfig command to
find XP ip address. In Vista command, run this command: net view \\xpipaddress.

Network Share Vista/XP
From the net share command, we can see the D drive doesn't enable sharing so
that you receive "\\Server\D is not accessible". -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Clayton" wrote in message ... ok this info is from the XP machine Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

Network Share Vista/XP
I can access the D drive on the Vista pc if I create an account on the XP
machine that is the same on the vista machine then logon, but I never had to do that before and I am beginning to think it is either a Vista SP-1 problem or a microsoft update after SP-1. I guess I could turn back on the password protected sharing on the vista machine and enter a username and password everytime I access the D drive but now that doesn't work, I'm still getting \\Server\D is not accessible I do alot of computer repairs and drop the customers xp pc on the network then access \\Server\D for files etc to install, so I don't want to start creating user accounts on their machines so I can access \\Server\D "Robert L.
