PC will not connect

Hi

I have Vista Ultimate networked to a XP Pro PC, the Network is visible on
both PC's, and I can access
the XP Pro fully from the Vista PC and I can access the Vista second hard
drive fully from the XP PC,
but when I try to access the C: Drive on the Vista PC from the XP PC I can
a message that I do not
have permisssion.

I have the same permissions set for both drives on the Vista PC, that is
full access to everything by all user,
only one on each PC.


Is there a setting I may be missing?

I have UAC turned off.

thanks

Daniel

Re: PC will not connect

In the C drive, also check the Security tab and make sure everyone has write
permission. This link may help too. Please post back with the result.

to other computer and you just re-connect it the the Vista? Check the
permission using this command: . ...
