For some reason I keep getting a system error 5 (access is denied)
whenever I try to map to a drive on my main home Vista machine. VPN server that I use seems to be functioning normally and I can map from the Vista machine to my laptop. I have checked net user and by administrator name is listed. I have no trouble mapping from my laptop to XP machines using the same VPN server and procedure. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help! |

Are you running with Password Protected Sharing Enabled, or Disabled? It's fine that the administrator name is listed, but is it activated for network access? What's the Network Location Type? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/12/windows-xp-and-vista-on-lan-together.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/1...-together.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.

Thanks indeed--very useful link--enough information there to solve the
problem. Of course, to get access to administrative shares one has to do this registry fix: http://www.jimmah.com/vista/Networking/filtertoken.aspx Again, thanks!!!
