Do you have another Windows client handy to verify that
your XP and Vista servers are granting you access?

Does ACL for the "harvey-c" directory above grant "Everyone" access?
(I do mean the directory, not the share ACL). Windows XP does not
make it easy to do that outside of the "Shared Documents" folder.
Testing with another client would help verify that.

The smbfs code in currently released SXCE builds does not support
"extended security" authentication, which Vista requires by default
(if I recall correctly). I can check this later and report back,
but I think you need to set: LmCompatibilityLevel=1
or something like that. I haven't run that code in a while.
(Busy working on code that won't need those adjustments:)

I hear your frustration, and I'm sorry it has not gone more smoothly
for you. I do hope we can help you past the problems.
