Vista RC2 file share login

[Tim Draper]

is there any way to stop vista asking for login to network shared folders?
yep, i know it's security, but at lans it's a bugger to have logins to
get a file off someone

thanks

Hi,
Go to Control Panel, then Network and Sharing Center. Turn Off Password
Protected Sharing.

this worked for me fine, but 3 reboots later, it acts liek it set to password
protected file sharing evethough it is set to off, i tried turing it in then
off again and rebooting but it still asks for a password when trying to get
to the vista machine, the vista machine can get to all the others fine.

Thanks for this! I was worried there was no way to easily share stuff with my
housemates like I could in XP, but there is. They should mention it more in
Help.
