I currently have SBS setup in the network but I have 1 computer that is VISTA.  Please note that this VISTA system does NOT need to be on the domain.  How can I use the printer of the SBS?
 
Please note that prior to VISTA, it was running on XP SP2 and it was able to use the printer shared by the server just fine.  Now, I am able to add it to VISTA however when I restart the system, the printers will not work as it will be access denied.  Is there something different between XP and VISTA in this sense?
 
I also tried changing the workgroup name to the domain name of the server but still it would access deny after restart.

you could try changing the permissions on the printer to the everyone group - but that may not work, and yes there a few differences between vista and xp when it comes to authentication.

try changing the permissions first and see how that goes.

Yeah I tried the permissions but still no go. Somehow it just doesn't re-authenicate after restarting the computer.
