    We have just installed WinXP on 1 machine in the office. The other PC are varied OS - W98, WNT4, W2K. On the XP machine it can only see 3 PCs within the network (out of 40) Of the 3, 1 is running Windows2000 Server, the other 2 running WinNT4. Vice versa I can not see the XP machine from other PC as well. I have defined the TCP/IP correctly....we are not using DHCP either. ANy suggestions from here.....Thanks.

    Domain or workgroup?

    You said even see, so no authentication issue yet.

    So answer me this, what happens when you rt click Network neithborhood/places and search/find a computer by name?
