TCP/IP connectivity issues

[Mandy]

Hi,

I have a problem where my laptop with Win XP Pro cannot
be seen by my Win2K server. When I try to browse for it
under My Network Places it gives me the error
message '\\workstation-X is inaccessible - the network
path was not found'. Obviously, I get a 'request time
out' when I try to ping to it.

From other WinXP and WIN NT machines I can browse on it
however, I cannot ping to it.

Can someone share some light on this issue for me?
