OK - hope somebody is still reading all that.
Did one last round of tests. This time with the MBL directly connected to the laptops. The results vary between Win7 and Vista and might help some of you to figure out what’s going on.
— the OS in both cases is German but you should get the main information 
–
In Win7 the drive is listed as computer, multimedia and storage device. If I click on the computer MYBOOKLIVE it opens all folders straight in the explorer. Fine.
In Vista it only shows it as multimedia and storage device. Not as computer. So it doesn’t see it in the domain.
Does that hint some bigger Vista problems? Doesn’t look as a user profile issue to me but I might be wrong.
Any ideas anybody?
