I cannot read a folder on a Vista PC from a DOS PC with MSCLIENT installed,
using TCP/IP. No problem if the folder is on XP PC. I disabled many
protection setting on Vista PC but it doesn't work yet. Is there a
particular setting on Vista to do this?
Thank you in advance

I'm sorry, but that isn't possible. Vista doesn't support file
sharing with DOS, WFW, or Windows 95/98/Me. It only works with
Windows 2000, XP, and Vista.
