Okay, here's something to try... Enable the guest account (on the Win 7 Home machine) and set guest's password to something you know (net user guest <password>) and then see if you can authenticate as guest. That was the only way I could get my XP Pro machine to connect my wife's XP Home machine.

My daughters machine is running Vista Home Premium (32-bit). My machine is running Vista Ultimate 64-bit. I've setup CyberPatrol on both machines and it's working fine. Problem is when I try to access her machine remotely through a UNC path. I get the logon prompt, but it won't accept my credentials. I've turned off the firewall to troubleshoot the issue and still no luck. Anything specific about Home Premium that might be causing the issue?
