Can't access workstation on the network.

I have 3 XP machines hooked together with a switch, but I
can't access one of them from the other two. I can ping
it, but if I try to access it I get "(computer name) is
not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server
to find out if you have access permissions. The trust
relationship between this workstation and the primary
domain falied." The offending workstation can see and
access both of the other two. I just doesn't work in the
other direction.
Also, I should mention that my three workstations are part
of a much bigger network through that same switch (hub
whatever). Also, the three workstations are all set up for
simple file sharing.
Any ideas?

XP Professional 2002, service pack 1, on all three
machines.
 
on the problem machine, make sure the firewall s dsabled and the Guest
account s enabled.
