Here is the link to the 2K explanation of this that I was able to find on the 
net.  Saved my butt.  I don't have/allow any XP on our network so I am unable 
to look at the config options to see if this works for XP.  Hope it helps 
some.

Yes I have changed the network setting in XP in the advanced WINS page
of the TCP/IP properties dialogue by checking the radio button next to
"Use NetBIOS over TCP/IP."  Is there something else that I should have
done to include SMB over NBT?  Did I forget an XP configuration step?

Thanks

Have you changed your default network configuration on XP (if it the
same as
2K) to include SMB over NBT (Netbios over TCP/IP) instead of just SMB
over
TCP/IP in order to have SMB communicate on ports 137-139 instead of 445
?
This got rid of some 2K issues I was having with Samba.
