Shared Files on Vista/XP network by
AndrewdeBath
Apologies if already discussed.
Network fully operational - Public Folder on Vista can be shared on XP - no
problem BUT when I attempt to share another folder on Vista it requests
username. Options include username on Vista, Guest, Everyone or Add name. It
appears that Vista cannot see usernames on XP. Do I have to add these
usernames to the Vista computer? I think the 'everyone' option...

Hula Baloo
OK, I've got 3 PCs as follows:
PC1 - Runs XP Media Edition with two printers attached & shared
PC1 - Runs XP Home Edition - uses the printers on PC1 via sharing.
PC3 - Runs Vista Business Edition. Shares files & folders just fine,
but for the life of me I cannot get it to add either printer that's on PC1.
I've spent hours pouring over hundreds (thousands?) of posts here.

addresses. The Vista client is configured to obtain an IPv6 address
automatically. I've also used the netsh command to make the following
