| | Vista to 2000, 2000 has shared folder We are having a heck of a time getting a new Vista laptop to talk with a shared folder on a 2000 system. We have matched workgroup names, both have internet access, no firewalls, no internet security software (just AVGFree), are up-to-date...our XP Home box can see and use the 2000 share but not Vista. Looking for any additional insight to get this connected. Thanks in advance, Dan |
