Default Vista can't access Win2000 but can access XP

I have a new Vista (home edition) added to my home network that already has
XP and W2K Advanced Server on it. All machines can see each other. However,
my new Vista can't access Win2000, but it can access XP. Here's the error:

net view \\w2kserver

System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.

All machines are in the same workgroup, same user, same password. Is anyone
kind enough to give me some suggestion? I'm getting really frustrated...
