I saw someone else reporting that kind of behavior/problem as new to
5365, specifically accessing domain-based server from workgroup-only
Vista 5365 machine.

I'm actually seeing that issue myself, within the workgroup, from
Vista to existing XP SP2 machines. If the credentials I've used for
logging into Vista 5365 don't transparently authenticate me to the
remote XP machine, sometimes the credentials are accepted in the
authentication prompt that comes up, but other times no amount of
correctly-entered credentials will succeed. If you set the Vista
username and password to match the necessary account information for
accessing the remote machine, it works every time without issue
(therefore not seeming to be any sort of "firewall" or "can't get
there from here with those credentials" issue).

This pure-workgroup scenario was new to 5365; i.e. I've been accessing
these same XP SP2 machines successfully (after being prompted for
authentication because the accounts normally don't match) in 5342 and
earlier.

Alan,

Thank the Lord someone else besides me is seeing this... I did post this as
a bug but if you could also that would help push the issue.

Andre,

I have submitted two now but no return assigned numbers have been issued,
Also I have continually searched the bug area and the only UNC issue I see
is another person dealing with authenticate when trying to access a file
rather than the share itself.

Sorry for the delay; it was Feedback ID 64232, for anyone within the
closed beta to see/validate/comment on that.

James,

This is a known issue and you will find it has been resolved in 5381.1

workaround for me on 65 has been to wait a few seconds and try the domain\id
again.

I seem to have found the issue, for some reason Vista is requiring the client
to enable File and Print to access a resource on another server, this is odd
behavior and has never been a requiredment to access a remote resource. For
some reason with out FnP enabled on the adapter it doesn not allow access. I
also noticed I am unable to start my computer browser service.
