XP can't access Vista
I have an XP laptop and a Vista desktop. The desktop can access all shared
folders on the laptop. However, the laptop can only access files on the desktop if the files are in the public folders. When I share a folder other than in the public folders, I can't access them. I get the "access denied", "not accessible", "contact administrator" blah blah blah. I've created a new user account on Vista and applied the password option, but my laptop never asks for the password. Please help. I'm going crazy. And getting tired.
