Re: Vista to XP file share problem

Glen,

On Vista you need to give access to the share and the files. You can do this with a big hammer by placing "Everyone" in the "Security" tab "goups or user names" and again on the "Sharing" tab, Advanced Sharing, Permissions area. Clearly you can be more precise by adding only the actual account needed.

In theory the same is required for XP, however its just less fussy. Had the same thing while I still had XP on the MCEs a while back and a new Vista laptop.

Should fix it.
