I am networking two computers - I'll call them Computer A and Computer B.
I have both computers to the point that they will "recognize" the other computer. However, when I am sitting at Computer B and try to access Computer A, I get the user name and password box. I enter the UN and PW and do not get access. It says the UN and PW are not correct. I went back to Computer A and checked the computer "name" and reset the password. Still not luck. Now from Computer A, I can access Computer B following the same protocol. The UN and PW work fine. From each computer I am using the UN and PW of the OTHER computer to try to log in. Computer B is running Vista Home Premium and Computer A is running Vista Business. Please help. |

Do you have any advice or suggestions on how you got your computers to
recognize each other? I have 2 XP and 1 Vista computer attached to a simple home network. The 2 XP computers can see each other and the internet. The Vista computer can get to the internet. The Vista computer cannot be seen or see the other XP computers. Any input on how you successfully got your computers to recognize each other would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Keith and BillW,
I'm sorry you're experiencing trouble. In order for your XP machines to 'see' your Vista machine properly in the Network Map, you will need to install the LLTD Responder onto your XP machine(s). You can download this from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en While LLTD helps you 'see' the Vista machine, it isn't intended to help with file or printer sharing. If you're having trouble with that, please let me know what error you're experiencing.
