Hi there I have a XP Pro on laptop and Vista Ult on PC. I can access shares both ways.

All priviledges to access the folder are set to Everyone - Full Access both share and NTFS rights. When I restart computer and access my laptop from XP...

I'm just looking for clarification. There is NO way I can use my newly purchased Vista Home Premium as a remote desktop server? On XP Pro I used remote desktop from work every day. I cannot afford Vista Ultimate. VNC doesn't cut it over the internet. I just want to use my PC from work!

Since installing Vista Hotfix KB299451 I have a new network adapter listed in device manager: Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface - with an exclamation mark: "The device cannot start (Code 10)". I am aware that this network adapter is required to enable IPv6 functionality over IPv4 but am not sure why it did not show up before installing this hotfix nor do I know how to correct this error. I...

I have a laptop & desktop network set up with Vista Business. I can connect the two of them successfully at home and have established approximately a dozen shares on the two machines. I have built a VPN to allow the two machines to connect when traveling. When on the road, I connect via the VPN to the Desktop but I can only see two of the 12 shares that I have set up. I suspect I have a...

I got problem when I'm trying to connect to my computer at school with Windows Vista. I tried to connect to my school computer with Win XP, it works perfectly. I thought it was a compatibility problem. However, when I tried to connect from Win Vista to my Win XP at home, it works just fine. I can even connect from Win XP to my Win Vista. I've updated my computer at school to RDP6 too, but I still...

Hi - I connected to my work network via network cable. To access my virtual desktop I need to use the Remote Desktop connection. I can ping the server (windows 2003) and get to the login screen where it asks me to verify my login name and domain and then enter my password. I have verified all the settings and still can't get to the virtual desktop. I was able to use this type of...

Wow, after reading the posts here I am amazed I got my vista/xp network going without too much problem... not because I know what I'm doing; just lucky I guess. But I do have one problem that stumps me: My network is 2 desktops with XP home SP2 wired to a router. Then a notebook with Vista Home Premium wirelessly connected. I can access all my shared files from any of the three computers so...

From my desktop I can see my laptop shared files but from my laptop, I cannot view my share documents in my Desktop. I get this error: Henn house is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the adminastrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

Well after all the reading through these posts and everyone referring people to the same webpages over and over, I found the better alternative. For those of you that have recently upgraded to Vista from Xp, Microsoft offers free tech support via phone for the first 90 days from purchase date of your Vista product. I was experiencing alot of difficulties with my firewall settings and...

I am able to sign onto my hotmail and view very few websites but get a connection error message when trying to sign onto most websites.

#1 Problem: Network Connection Sporadic Any time I go into sleep mode and return my network is *usually* ok. However, a majority of the time now even after a fresh reboot, my network shows "connected with limited access", which simply equals no connection. I do not know why this keeps happening. I've restarted my system, router, modem and still the problem occurs. #2 Problem: Sleep Mode...

Hi All! Just got a new Vista Ultimate machine. I have an old XP Home machine that I wanted to use to create a simple home network. I created a workgroup on both machines (Workgroup). I created a username that was the same for both PCs (same passwords as well). I connected both machines to my router via Ethernet. I first had a problem with my Vista machine not seeing my XP machine. I...

I have set up a wireless home network on which I would like to share a printer attached to my desktop on which Vista Home Premium is installed. My remote computer uses the Windows XP operating system. I have set up the network and enabled file and printer sharing on the desktop and allowed an exception to the Windows firewall. I have also set up a network on the remote computer. Both...

Hi there Is it just me or does Windows make it extremely hard to network 2 computers? I just got a new PC (Vista) and I want the Vista to see my old PC (XP). Both Vista nd XP connect to the internet through an SMC Barricade Wireless Router. I have an ethernet cable from the Vista and XP connected to the router so shouldn't that be enough of a connection to see eachother's shared files and...

Hi all, I have just got Vista Premium and am running XP Pro. I installed the lltd on XP and for some reason I still cant see either machine when they are shared out. I have other XP machines and can see the XP machines from my XP boxes but cant see the Vista machine nor can the Vista machine see any of the XP machines. I know this post has come up often but trying to figure out what is...

I have just purchases a Vista Business laptop and can connect to the internet just fine wirelessly. I can't see my wired XP or 2000 Pro machines or printers from the Vista machine. They all have complete share access. I have read these threads and everything seems to match the suggestions except I can't seem to find the LLTP patch mentioned. My wired machines see the wireless laptop but...
