I have a Vista machine and an XP Pro machine. The Vista has 2 NICs, NIC 1
connected to the cable moden and NIC 2 connected to XP using a crossover
cable. Vista is set for ICS.

Internet works fine on both machines, always.

XP can see and access Vista's shared folders, always.

Vista cannot see XP. NIC 2 comes up "unidentified network" and is set
"public". I change NIC 2 to "private", then after a brief delay XP becomes
visible and accessible. NIC 2 still labeled "unidentified network".

On reboot NIC 2 reverts to "public".

I'm sure I have sonething configured wron. I appreciate in advance any
help. IP info follows:

Vista following reboot:
