Access NT4 shares from Vista

Yes, I believe that was the case. I will check
again (I'm at home now) tomorrow.

If that was true, what advice might you have for me?

It is name resolution issue. You may want to setup WINS server. Or this
search result may help.

OK, went back to the office to get the error #.

It is System Error 5, a Permissions thing.

Please note that this NT4 box is fully browseable by
95OSR2, 98SE, W2KSP4 and XP SP2.

Only the Vista Home Prem. can't get in. That would
indicate the problem's with the Vista machine?
