RE: Connecting to NetShare with Vista boxes...problem continues

from: Chad Carroll <carrocr@xxxxxxxxx>

A quick summary, we have 3 brand new Dell's running
Vista Business, all current with updates. I have all
?of the Vista "enhancements" turned off, there does not
seem to be any security getting in the way. These
boxes are reaching internet, sharing with each other,
?and sharing with older 2000 and XP machines that are
in the office without issue.

We only have a handful of users who access any shares on the iSeries,
But when we upgraded a couple of users to XP-Pro from win2k they
couldn't connect anymore. The problem turned out to be that there was no
guest user profile configured in the Netserver configuration. Once I
added a valid profile, it worked fine. (On the 'Security' tab)
