My XP machine was set up as a host and I can't have two host machines
on the same network, right? The laptop I had networked into the 2000
machine was recognized by the new XP machine but not my 2000 pro
desktop.
Hope I'm making this clear.

You write "My XP machine was set up as a host". This does not
mean much in current Windows parlance. Did you set it up with
some shares that could be accessed by other machines on the
network? If so then you must create those same shares on the
new machine.
Also remember that Win2000/XP is a secure operating system.
This means that if you log on as "Elliot" on the laptop then there
must be an account "Elliot" on the other machine, with the same
password. If there isn't then you will be treated as a stranger
while working off the laptop.
