connecting vista home to nt 4.0

[ericwi]

Hi all,

I have a notebook pre-installed with vista home edition. Can I use my notebook to access my NT4.0 server? If so, how is it done? Thanks

Anything with Home in the title, Basic or Premium, will be like XP Home and not designed to join a Domain. It should be able to access any Server, or any other machine in a Woirkgroup, if you set up the file sharing properly.
