Vista network access via dial up

Thank you Jay,

What we do is upload the weekly advertising for each store in hundreds of
shopping malls around the country. We have been doing this for many years
with no trouble until we introduced las week 2 new PC with Vista Business.
There is no problem to upload to the via a LAN connection but as soon as we
try to do it remotely via dial up connection we can not access any of the
folders that we share for this purpose. We agree that it should not be a
difference between dialup network and LAN but somehow there is?
We appreciate your help.

Have you set the dialup connection to explicitly allow file sharing?
Go to tat connections Properties to check, and set it if necessary.
