Wireless/Wired Domain/User & Group Issues.
Hi

I think the best place for this question is in Networking, so forgive me if it's not.

I have a Vista Business laptop with a wireless connection to a small network of about 5 machines. I having a problem opening a "Select Users or Groups" dialog box during a MS wizard (ConnWiz30.exe). When I am supposed to open that dialog box I get the error mesasage...

"The program cannot open the required dialog box because no locations can be found. Close this message, and try again."

If I try the same thing, using the same wizard, on a wired computer on the network I get no problems. If I try to get to the same dialog box by using share permissions on the laptop I can do that, it's just the wizard that doesn't work.

The only major difference I can tell between the wireless and wired connections is that the wireless/laptop LAN connection has a SSID, the wired computers do not. Although when I tried connecting the laptop via a wired connection I got the same problem.

This network is not run off a domain.

Any help with this is really appreciated, I'm pulling my hair out over this.

Thanks!

Take a look at: Windows XP And Vista On The LAN Together.

See if this site: File and Printer Sharing in Windows Vista helps you if the previous one isn't doing the trick.
