I have file sharing setup on the Vista machine and the XP Pro machine. Vista can see and access files on the XP machine, but the XP machine cannot see or access the Vista machine. I tried to Google but to no avail. If anybody has any ideas, please let me know.

Ok, I found out that XP is actually seeing Vista, but it wasnt connecting because I had to enter a username and password, but Password Sharing is turned off on the Vista machine. Why is it still asking for a password? -- my95z34 |

Why is it still asking for a password? Try running this in both computers it will probably solve your issues http://www.networkmagic.com/download/ cheers Keith D. |
