vista can not access xp, but xp can access visat
I am having the same problem. I have a vista Laptop (wireless) and an XP desktop (ethernet) networked through a wireless router. The xp machine has the printer. I can see the vista machine from the xp machine, access folders and transfer files. I can ping both ways without problem. The xp shows up on my vista network map, but will not appear in the list of machines. I loaded the LLTP, changed workgroup name, have identical user/pass accounts, enabled network discovery and yet still the connection is one way. Any ideas? Thanks all. -- rhillstr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rhillstr's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=21806 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=674570 http://forums.techarena.in

Assuming the remote computer IP is 192.168.1.2, run command line: "net use \\192.168.1.2" without quotation. Please post back with the system error.

Glynn: Go to command prompt and type: NET USE //(ip of your windows xp machine OR its name) for example on mine its: NET USE //192.168.11.100 or NET USE //DESKTOP Robert L: When I do this from my XP machine I get my Vista Laptop, however when I do this from my Vista laptop (the one I can't see the network on) I get "SYSTEM ERROR 58". Again I can ping it without difficulty. -- rhillstr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rhillstr's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=21806 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=674570 http://forums.techarena.in

I can see everything from my Vista Network screen. But the XP nodes see only one another, not Vista. Same workgroup etc What amazes me is the net commands don't see it even from itself. Btw it can ping itself even though the net commands don't see it but no other node can. It simply isn't there as far as they're concerned. One article states that simple sharing isn't possible but then if that isn't true why is there an option to turn off password sharing? It behaves the same either way in my case just thought I'd mention that confusion as well.  joe

Success! I had all firewalls and norton disabled, but upon careful review I had WORM PROTECTION turned on in Norton Antivirus. Listed in the specific attack protections was an entry for numerous TCP/IP and Netbios items! I turned worm protection off and.... works perfectly!!! -- rhillstr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rhillstr's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=21806 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=674570 http://forums.techarena.in
