No that shouldn't have anything to do with it.

The IP settings look great.

Can you ping the Windows 2000 machine from the XP machine? If you can not I
would replace the net card on the Win 2000 nachine, or you could try and
reinstall the driver. The D-Link NICs are unreliable, in my experience
although I haven't used one lately.

here you go. the windows machine doesn't recognize any
other computer on the same workgroup, but they are all XP
machines. the XP machine sees everyone, but isn't
allowed access to the 2000 machine. Is it the IP Routing
Enabled being "No" that's causing the problem ??
