Bob,
thanks for all the help so far....I really need to get this problem
fixed.....So i understand your master browser and WINS....I will need to
check this on the server that is not in the home office and that is the
Windows 2000 server...
1. Do I check the master browser on both servers?
2. WINS.....what do i check?
