sharing files and printers with a Windows 7 machine

Hey everyone, I'm having some problems with file and print sharing between my Fedora 12 box and my Win 7 box. trying to access shares on the Win 7 machine results in a "unable to retrieve the shares list" error message. I've been searching Google for a while now with no success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you check the firewall settings on both machines?

Yes, I disabled the firewalls on both machines to figure out if that was the culprit. In addition, I'm able to access shares on an XP machine that's also on my network.
