More of the same. XP Home SP2 ("LAPTOP") can access Vista Premium
("DESKTOP") shares over (private) Home Network ("WORKGROUP"), but Vista
can't access XP shares.

NetBios enabled on both machines, even installed NetBeui. Nothing.

"\\LAPTOP is not accessible..." "Access is denied."

NET USE \\LAPTOP completes succesfully. (from DESKTOP)
NET USE \\DESKTOP completes succesfully. (from LAPTOP)

Meanwhile radmin3 is twirling it's balls, wondering what all the

If you can net use but access, that could be the permission issue. Have to
assigned permissions in the Security tab? Or this link may help,

Robert, you mentioned permissions as the likely problem, but I can't
figure out how to change settings in XP Home SP2. As far as I know,
there is only the checkbox (properties\share) to allow network users
the right to change files. Since XP is inaccessible from Vista while
Vista is accessible from XP, I'm assuming the problem is somewhere in
my XP Home setup.

Default More "XP can, Vista can't"


Robert, I installed 'FaJo XP File Security Extension (XP FSE)'
(http://www.fajo.de/portal/index.php?...tpage&Itemid=1)
on my XP Home SP2 machine ("LAPTOP"). In effect it adds the "missing"
security tab. ('FaJo interface.'
(http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b17/rrzzrr/FaJo.jpg))
When attempting to add a user, the locations dialogue
(properties\security\add\locations) lists LAPTOP, but the Vista Premium
machine ("DESKTOP") can't be found.

Which strikes me as strange. DESKTOP can be accessed from LAPTOP (files
transfer to/from/delete/change), but it can't be found when looking up
users?
