Hello , I am having teh same exact problem and the same error message when
trying to connect to our shared printers. We are sharing them from a W2K3
server and connecting with windows XP SP2. We are on the same LAN as the
server. I found out that if i go to command prompt and do net use to the
printer share it will connect there. But in windows it will not. I hope
someone can help with this.

Thank you
