I have One Vista PC, one Vista notebook, one Windows Server 2003 PC and a
bunch of XP desktops and notebooks. All of the XP machines are SP3, the Vista
machines are SP1. The Vista notebook can share files and folders as expected
with any of the other machines in the workgroup. All the XP machines and the
Server 2003 PC can share as expected. However, the Vista PC cannot share any
files or folders with any other machine. It can share its printer just fine
with any machine as expected.
Of special note - prior to replacing all of the hard drives in this Vista
PC, I could share files and folders as expected. As each hard drive was
replaced, I lost the ability to share from that drive. I have tried removing
and then re-establishing shares with different share names, as well as
setting the permissions for Everyone to full control. No attempts to reset
the sharing have been successful. If I look at the share setting for any of
these drives, it looks as if any Vista or XP machine should be able to have
access. None do. The shares show up, but an Access Denied message greets any
attepmts to connect. This Vista machine can connect and access any machine in
the workgroup.
