The LLTD Responder is absolutely NOT REQUIRED for pre-Vista Windows
computers to interact with Vista via Windows Networking.
The LLTD responder is only needed if you want pre-Vista computers to be
properly placed in the Network Map window - the document at
http://technet2.microsoft.com/Window....mspx?mfr=true
only discusses and only applies to, the Network Map feature in Vista,. not
any other networking capability.
If you can not access folder or printer shares on Vista computers from a
pre-Vista computer, or vice-versa, the problem is not the lack of the LLTD
Responder, it's something else.
You may need to enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP for TCP/IP V4 in the Network
Connection's properties:
1. right click the Network icon in the Notification Area
2. click Network and Sharing Center
3. click Manage network connections
4. make sure that Network Discovery is On (note - in a Windows Domain, this
may need to be enabled by an administrator using a GPO)
5. make sure that File Sharing is On
6. make sure that Public folder sharing is Off
7. if you have a printer locally installed that you want other computers to
use, make sure Printer Sharing is On
8. click Manage network connections (left pane)
9. right click the Local Area Connection (or whatever network connection is
in use - e.g. a wireless connection)
10. select Properties
11. click Continue in the UAC prompt (or supply Administrative username and
password)
12. select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
13. click Properties
14. click Advanced...
14. select the WINS tab
15. select the Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP radio button
16. click OK; click OK; click Close - this change will take affect
immediately - no need to logoff or restart
Also, as stated in other posts in this thread and others - make sure you
don't have a third party firewall blocking the ports or programs needed

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
