Interesting.  We do have WINS setup on our DC.  (Server 2003 R2 SP2)  Still

had the problem over VPN. 

Second, I thought that WINS was no longer required for a Server 2003 network

if you do not have any legacy operating systems.  Are you saying that Vista

now requires WINS to function correctly on the network?

I don't think you can do that. However, you may have two options. Assuming

you are the administrator, you logon the administrator or run as

administrator if other user logon and I don't want to relogon.

I assume you are speaking of the last paragraph. What of the second, then?

 

When I first attempted to access a shared folder on a Vista computer, I was

prompted for a username and password. I entered the main user's account

credentials and logged on in that way. Now, however, I have demoted that user

and have added a new administrator, and would like to be able to relogin to

that computer with the new credentials.

 

Are you saying that is not possible?

I have the same problem but it seems after much looking around there is no

real solutions, only work-arounds. I have a brand new Vista machine that

can't keep a network printer online!!

if other computers show on network map but not show on network, this could

be the computer browser issue. Post back with the result of "net view"

I`m not certain what your problem here is but this worked for me.

 

 

Couldn't get my new Acer Aspire 3680 to connect to my slightly older

Gigafast router/WAP WF719-CAPR

 

(actually a CC&C WA-2204A router - it is registered at the FCC under this

name - but AKA Gigafast WF719-CAPR, AKA Blanc Wireless G router BW54R11, AKA

MSI RG54SE , AKA Bluecomm WA-2204A, AKA Zonet ZSR1114WE).

 

It turned out to be a Vista problem.

 

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-us

 

has the solution, which involves adding one value to the Windows registry .

My laptop is now connected wirelessly.

 

1.Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit

in the Programs list.

 

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type

your password, or click Continue.

 

2.Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\{GUID}

In this registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the

network adapter that is connected to the network.

 

3.On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.

 

4.In the New Value #1 box, type DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then

press ENTER.

 

5.Right-click DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then click Modify.

 

6.In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.

 

7.Close Registry Editor.

Now I also note that my memory activity seems weird.  In task manager the

amount of free physical memory stays constant regardless of how hard I load

the system (e.g. max load = solidworks with 3d controller and lots of add-in

modules, 2x eve-online clients, apache server, 2 x tomcat servers, PDMWorks

server, outlook, excel, word, media centre playing riddick, etc) or not (all

of this off), the available free memory seems to be < 100MB.  I should on

paper have a couple of GB spare when it's all turned off.

 

I also note that my computer > properties says that RAM is not available,

and I can find no reference to RAM/memory under the Device Manager.

 

Theory: there is a problem with the memory, or at least the reporting of how

much is available.

Effect: the above, plus the Network list manager tries to see if enough RAM

is available for it to run (does it do this?), doesn't get a satisfactory

reply, and takes it's ball and goes home.

 

Help?  please?

 

By the way, MS email help says to contact Dell, as the OS was pre-installed

(as are 80+% of new OSes) and Dell says that because it's software to go

elseware.
