Sounds like name resolution issue. Do you have WINS server? also check the DNS settings.

Hello. My company (Company A) recently merged with another company (Company
B). Domain A is connected to Domain B using a Sonicwall VPN tunnel with T1
Internet connections at either end. Most user computers on Domain A can
navigate to Domain B using "Explore" from the Start menu, go to My Network
Places, Entire Network, Microsoft Windows Network, find Domain B, find a
fileserver on Domain B, and drill down to a shared drive on it. Upon double
clicking the shared drive, a login box appears and a Domain A user can type
in a valid Domain B login ID (i.e. j@xxxxxxxxxxx) and password, and thereby
access the shared drive contents or map a drive letter to the shared drive.
For most Domain A users, this process works fine. However, I have three
users who can explore as described above, see Domain B, and see the filesever
on Domain B, but not drill down to the shared drive. When these three users
click on the fileserver on Domain B, they do not get a login box but instead
get a message as follows: "DomainBFileserver is not accessible. You might
not have permission to use this network resource... The network path was not
found".
It may be helpful to note that the same three problem PCs on Domain A move
very slowly through the explore process described above before ultimately
receiving the "not accessible message" referred to above. In fact, they move
slowly exploring in the same manner even to servers on their own domain (i.e.
Domain A) but in the end are able to access shared drives on Domain A.
All servers are Windows Server 2003 and all user PCs are Windows XP. All
updates are installed on the servers and PCs.
Thank you for any assistance you may be able to provide.
Sincerely, J
