Permissions shouldn't matter here. When you ran the wizard, did you set the workgroups to be the same?

This is a true WTF situation...

I think it's time to start checking little pissy things. Have you used a straight-through network cable to connect the computer? (as opposed to a crossover like you'd get free with a cable modem).

Network card drivers?
