    It works fine from Vista, just not from Windows 7. As usual I click the server symbol within Network and enter my username and password, same as Vista, but it doesn't work.
    Why is it like that with Windows 7, is there anything else to specifically pay attention to, what's different from Vista?

    Using remote as admin it works though, just like using Vista.

    It's the same with a clean install of Windows, no third party applications installed at all. It rather seems like Windows 7 isn't even trying to connect.
