I tried through Vista's network sharing and I also tried from the 'run' command \\***.***.***.*** but again it asked for logon details. I havent set any details like this on either machine. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks
What does the screen look like that is asking for the username and password, is the any other wording on this page.
