Sounds like a DNS configuration issue on the server.

Turn off the 'Computer Browser" service on all Win2K systems except for one. The one that continues to run the service will become the Master Browser.

That oughtta' speed things up a bit.....:winkgrin:

Hope that helps......

Need more info. What are you running small home network, sm med or big company? Do you have an Active Directory Domain? How are you resolving IPs to computers, DNS, DHCP,(WINS)? The older 98 machine is using WINS and the (smarter) Win2k unit are trying to use a service thats not configured properly.
