User Name and Password to file share OSX and Vista

I have just bought a Laptop running VISTA for work. I want to share files between my i-mac and the lap top. I have managed to share from MAC > Vista but can not log onto the MAC from Vista.
I map the drive using \\192.168.2.2\kemery and am then prompted for a user name and password so enter my MAC short name and password (administrator). The log on fails and returns "unsucessful" with the user name filled in as
KeithEmery-PC\kemery. I have tried changing it to WORKGROUP\kemery but nothing seems to work.
Please help - this is the last task on an otherwise simple setup!

I left off the \\ that is before the 192.168.2.2 and it worked just fine for me. But I am using Vista Ultimate and this may or may not make a difference. Ultimate is suppose to have easier Networking set - up
