Default Vista + Win 2000 sharing

My home network consists of 3 pc's, 2 using 2k Pro and a new pc using Vista
Ultimate. All using manual IP's connected to a 4 Origio port router.

I have gone though the replies to other queries for win2k here and can now
Access my shared drives on my vista pc from my other 2 but still not access
those 2 from my vista PC.

changes made

Netbios allowed over tcp-ip in 2k Pro networking and my firewall on each pc
My Vista IP added to trusted in each 2k Pro's firewall
All pc's have a Admin user with same name etc
Network sharing center: Network set to Private // Network discovery on //
filesharing on // Public sharing with PW required

I have tested with both Vista and other pc's firewalls off and still cant
see my other pc's

Anything I've missed?

Ok odd behaviour guess too used to win2k networks being almost instantanious,
after having my pc's on for a hour or more today I can finally See and use
the shared folders From my Vista PC and having made no changes to any
settings.

Hmm legacy network support has got to be improved
