Vista - File Sharing Between XP/Vista

I have four networked computers, three of them run Vista and the fourth runs XP Pro.

I can see every Vista computer on each Vista computer, but cannot access them. File sharing is enabled on all of them. The XP computer does not show up in the network places window on any of the Vista computer, nor does it's IP address show up on my IP scanner.

The XP computer can see one of the Vista computers (not all), and it, too, has sharing enabled.

Three of the computers, two of my Vista computers & my XP computer, run Kaspersky IS 2009. The third still runs a trial version of NAV 2009. My router is a DLink XTreme N Gigabit router.

I was told that this problem stems from firewall configurations, or lack thereof, on each computer. I am unsure as how to rectify it.

I would like to be able to access data between all of the computers.

Please close...

I got file sharing to work...

I have the same issue what did you do to solve the issue?? Thank You

ok ,how your in deep doodoo unless your a genius,vista and xp are as friendly as a jackrussel on crack,there is a file that you must download on to your xp computer i cannot rember what it is but anyway that file turns that jackrussel into a nice pinkpony and te only problem from there is what to do now that everything is fune.

I am having a similar problem. Both machines show network places for both machines.
When I try to access either machine from the other I get the following error.

Windows cannot access \\Computer name
error code: 0x80070035
The network path was not found

Does anyone have this working?

Please any help or directions to look would be greatly appreciated.

It would be nice if someone who has this working would write a tutorial so all of us struggling to try to get it working would be helped.

Regards

I have made some progress now. I am now able to share the documents on the Vista PC with the XP PC but I still get the same error in my original post.

Does that help any more?
