I have 2 computers: one is on Vista and the other one is on Windows 7. I made a shared folder on my vista computer and tried adding it from my windows 7 computer. I keep getting the following message when trying to click on my Vista computer from my Windows 7:

Windows cannot access \\COMPUTER-NAME

You do not have permission to access \\COMPUTER-NAME. Contact your network administrator to request access.

How do you access a Vista shared drive from Windows 7 ?
