Have you installed SP2 for W2K recently?
It's Ben's (my son's) machine that has the problem, I'll ask him but I don't think he's installed any upgrades recently.
The latest service pack for Windows 2000 is SP4. Certainly XP SP2 changed a large number of security settings, but this hasn't stopped such PCs talking to Samba servers.
SP4! That's the one! Goes to show how much I use Window$ these days... Anyway, similar changes to those required by XP Pro are required on W2K SP4. A google will help you there. There're registry changes and some group policy changes required.
Cheers, Laurie.
