Hi,

between my XP and Vista comp, the way i go about file sharing is type "\\Computername" in my explorer to enter the shared folders of the computer. the computers aren't listed in "My network places" or inaccessible - it says i do not have permissions - when i can enter and access files using \\Computername? how do i fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Have a look here: Vista and XP file sharing.

You need to download an update for all your XP machines.

(This has nothing to do with unattended vista. You should have searched first in Networking section before posting.)

@all,

Does one of the systems has an account with no password. It was a problem with 2 XP computers and accounts with no passwords. Maybe this is also true for Vista.
