outlook 2003-SBS 2000

When I try to set up an exchange email account on one computer it says the
microsoft exchange server is unavailable. I can ping the exchange server. I
can access the rest of the network . I can set up the account on any other
machine with users and it works fine. It's as if Outlook is offline. Any
suggestions.

Can you ping the exchange server by netbios name?
