I have a windows 2000 server that when I map a share from a windows XP client the share takes up to 20 minutes to map. All other shares on all other servers in my organization are working fine. and on this peticular server, Windows 2000 workstations can access the shares correctly and quickly. It is only with XP wokstaions Help!
 
Presuming you're using AD, make sure that all servers and workstations
should specify *only* the internal AD-integrated DNS server's IP address in
their network settings. The AD-integrated DNS server should be set up with
forwarders to your ISP's DNS servers for external resolution. See
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;300202 for more
info.

Also make sure you aren't using autosense on any NICs - lock them all down
at a specific speed/duplex setting, and if you have a managed switch, lock
down the switch ports as well.
