I have a friend with a home network. He has XP MCE 2005 on 2 machines and
Vista (Ultimate on one, Premium on another) on 2 machines.

Same workgroup
Vista can see and share folders on XP
XP can see and share folders on Vista
Simple sharing off on XP
Printer sharing Security allows full control to Everyone on XP
Printers are USB Canon on both XP machines.

Vista can see XP printers on both, but gets "access denied" message.

Any help will be appreciated.
