I have a small home network that has worked fine with 2 ME machines for
quite a while. I replaced one of my machines with a Vista machine. The
Vista machine works fine seeing and logging on to the ME machine but the ME
to Vista has problems. The ME machines sees the Vista machine but when I
click on the Vista machine I get this message:

Enter Network Password

You must supply a password to makes this connection

Resource \\Comp2\IPC$

Password

Comp2 is the Vista machine.

I can't figure out what the password should be nor how to set up one.

I have password protected off on the Vista machine.

Any help would very much be appreciated.
