Re: Network Share Vista/XP

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

From the net share command, we can see the D drive doesn't enable sharing so
that you receive "\\Server\D is not accessible".

Not sure what command you want me to run from the Vista machine would it be net view\\192.168.1.39 ?

In the XP command, run this command: net share. Then ipconfig command to find XP ip address. In Vista command, run this command: net view \\xpipaddress. Post all results here.

For months I was able to drop a XP machine onto the network and access a shared drive on my Vista machine without having to log the XP machines in with my username and password, now I am unable to do it, keeps saying \\Server\D is not accessible
I have formatted the computers and tried everything but still no go.

Any idea's?
