Vista default username/pass on Network?


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Just configured my new router for my PC running Vista and my notebook running XP. Now since the configuring, i have been trying to access files from each of the computers over the network. This is where i find the problem.

When im on the PC, i can find the Notebook in the 'Network' and have access to all the files on the C: fine. Now when i go to get files from the PC while logged into the Notebook, everytime i double click the PC icon it asks for the Username and password! (see attached image of the popup screen).

now in XP i know i can right click on each shared item and change the permissions there, but on vista i have no idea where it is asking me to set the username and password. Shouldnt i be able to see individual shard items on my PC like the folder i shared called 'Bens'?

Any suggestions very welcome!!!

Thanks in advance for your help!
