So I just installed Vista and I'm attempting to do a few things that seem to be different in XP.
1) I am attempting to modify the hosts file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, however it won't let me save it. Why is that?
2) I have a Windows Server 2003 computer with shared network drives that I want to access, however I can't access them. I can connect via Remote Desktop, but not by typing "\\192.168.1.100\Share"
3) When I try to connect to remote desktop, why does it assume that the Domain that I'm attempting to connect to is the local computer?
I haven't joined this laptop to the domain and I was hoping that I wouldn't have to. Looks like it's going to be a learning curve here ;-)
Thanks in advance,
J
