Hey there Bill,
I think this is an issue with Vistas Password protected sharing... I have a
Dell Axim x51 and I have recently found that I cannot connect to my new
vista box with password protected sharing-however i can connect to my XP
machine with it no sweat.
Weird...you could allow a guest to access the folder if the data is ok to be
shared?
