public folder sharing/on (password required) starkeeper3 7/8/2007 3:24:02 PM i have a vista desktop(hard wired to the router) a vista laptop (wireless) a 2nd XP desktop (hardwired) and 2nd XP laptop (wireless), before Vista, i could get files and make changes to all computers from any where, now it says that i have to enter a user and password when i chose a computer i want to access. i have resetup the network 2 times, and each time i have NOT setup with passwords, is there default passwords? i feel like i have waisted all this money to setup the ultimate home network and i cant access video or music from anywhere. there must be something simple i'm missing cause this was so easy with XP and i cant figure it out in vista. thanks in advance
