RE: Issues with file sharing between Vista and windows 2000

I have a similar issue too. The difference is that I (for now) don't want an
internet connection, only a network with a crosslink cable.

The situation is:
PC 1: Vista and XP, PC 2: Win2000
XP vs Win2K: everything ok
Vista vs Win2K (the same 2 PCs): Win2K sees everything, Vista doesn't list
the 2K in the Network window. The strange thing is that if I enter the name
manually ("\\whatever"), it can open the address properly.

Network discovery in Vista is on.
Any ideas? For example turning on something like network discovery in win2K?
But then why does it work in XP?
