I am having an issue logging into my NAS drive for some
reason Vista keeps putting the computer name in front of
the user name like:

Computername/Username

This is in turn rejecting my logging into my nas. It does
not happen with my imac mapped drives. I have tryed the
logon using a different username and it just wont work

Reply: (edit)

the computer name is pretending its a domain name. On my computer, its something like Devin-PC/Devin for me. You have to type the whole thing to log in. Type the username of the computer on the computer with the NAS drive.

crappy OEM comptuers...
