Check and see if "Simple File Sharing" is turned OFF. If this turned on, you will not be able to get to the administrative share on the "C" drive in XP from another XP or 2K box.

You need to check and see if the Netlogon Service is running on the servers you are trying to log onto. If both servers are setup on the same IP network segment and have the same subnet mask they should both be able to communicate and share resources. NetBIOS names are for WINS Servers. NetBios over TCP/IP is used for WINS Servers also. Also if you have the servers setup in Native mode, then if your Global Catalog Server is down you will not be able to logon unless you are in the Enterprise Admin group. The Global Catalog Server is the first server in the domain that was promoted to be a DC in the domain by default. It controls user logon in a Native Mode setup with Windows 2000/2003 servers in a domain.

Amen Windows ME is very evil. Use 98 before ME.

Yes there is a way. Setup the box with the two nics as a router.

You have to setup up the relay agent on the segment that does not have the DHCP server on it. It will pass on the request for the DHCP address request to the DHCP and then pass it back to the client when it receives the IP address from the DHCP Server. You setup a relay agent in the Routing and Remote Access Control for Windows 2000 Server. Remember DHCPDiscover is a broadcast and router will not past a broadcast unless specifically told how.

Anyone trying it yet!!
