on a vista home (guesting) machine i get the password prompt when i type in the other computer name, if i type ‘guest’ with no password it returns with DDDD\guest (DDDD is the guest computer).
i enabled the guest account on the guesting computer but no use.

i then enabled Network Discovery on the ultimate and then it works so it is a requirement.
i disabled it for performance reasons.
