NT4.0 to Windows 2000 communication
This is a discussion about NT4.0 to Windows 2000 communication in the Windows Networking category; We have a network of NT4. 0 workstations with a Windows NT server. I added a new workstation running Windows 2000. From the Windows 2000 workstation I can access all of my NT4. 0 workstations from Network neighborhood except with the exception of one.

workstation I can access all of my NT4.0
workstations from Network neighborhood except
with the exception of one. It does not even
show up on the Network neighborhood. If I
go to that particular workstation and look
at its Network neighborhood, the Windows 2000
workstation shows up, but when I try to select
it, nothing happens. All the other NT4.0
stations can talk to each other and the 2000
station can talk to them. This one station
is the only one with the problem. We are
running TCP/IP. Any ideas where I should
look to figure out how to get these two talking.
Thanks

I would first recommend trying the two machines with Netbeui (even if you don't want netbeui on your network install it temporarily).
If, after installin Netbeui on both machines, they still can't talk then at least you know it's not a specific TCP/IP problem. (Also try running Netbeui only on both machines).
If netbeui works then you know you don't have any policy/security/group issues.
Sorry this isn't more help.
