    I have a few questions about the file sharing. Firstly, did anyone succesfully get vista to discover folders on xp machines? I installed ttld on the xp machine and enabled all that file sharing stuff, and could finally only access the folders by typing in the computer name manually into the address bar. It never found it automatically, which is kinda annoying, so is there any way to fix that.

    One more thing, when transferring between the two machines over the wifi, they are both connected to the router at 54 mbps, but the max transfer speed is 700kb/s. Should it go faster, or is that really the max?

    thanks
