Would the fastest, simplest, and above all *safest* solution to this
be to get rid of the  XP host? Microsoft ended all support in April,
2014, There can be software access to proprietary data, or old
permanent license on such a host, reasons to keep such a machine
alive. But it's a basic security risk on your internal network.
