It's a totally insane user model. I've never seen a system as cockeyed as Vista. Jason, you're lucky you're dealing with only XP and Vista. Our work environment includes Win98, WinNT, XP, Linux and Vista. So far we've only been able to get consistent connections to some of the XP machines. And when a Vista system fails to connect to the NT boxes ("...the same user cannot use two different user names to connect..." even when it's the same user using the same name as they always did), it's very likely to kick off an established connection in the process. I spend a large portion of my time running around re-connecting kicked off users and explaining to the others that, "Well, this is the new Windows security. You have to log in about 4 times before you can get to your old directories ... and maybe log in a couple more times after you make a document change and want to save the file to the same directory you just opened it from. Sorry. That's 'more secure'."
I could go onandonandonandonandonandon ... but I'm too tired. Oops! Another Vista userland issue is looming ... gotta run.
