I'm a software developer and I think all developers are experiencing tons of headaches trying to develop and/or port programs onto vista because of all the new security enhancements microsoft put it. At this point we're trying to figure out how to run our own software on vista machines if it was installed by another user.
Anyway, perhaps try this for your issue, it may work, who knows. Set up a local user on your vista box with the same name and password you use on your XP box. It may automatically authenticate for you when you try to access the vista box. Keyword in that statement is 'may'.
If you're currently not using a password on your XP box to log in, that might be something Vista doesn't like since they have tightened up the security on Vista. Which would explain why Vista can access the XP box (it doesn't need a password to do it) and why XP can't access the Vista box (vista requires passwords and permissions for EVERYTHING).
Good luck. |
