Maybe check the workstations...

Overview of problems that may occur when administrative shares are missing
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;842715

1. Examine the AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks registry values to make sure
that they are not set to 0: a. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and
then press ENTER.
b. Locate and then click the following registry sub-key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
c. If the AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks DWORD values in the
LanmanServer\Parameters sub-key are configured with a value data of 0,
change that value to 1.
Note If these values do not exist, you do not have to create them because
the default behavior is to automatically create the administrative shares.

d. Quit Registry Editor.

2. Restart the computer. Typically, computers that are running Windows
Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0 automatically
create the administrative shares during startup.

That's the strange thing...

when logged into the domain, only one share {\\servername\users) is
visible and accessible to the client computer.

When logged into a workgroup, all shares are visible and accessible after
entering the domain user credentials. The hidden server shares "C$" and
"Admin$" can be accessed and viewed. IPC$ in not accessible, but I am not
sure it should be. It asks for Username and Password. When I tried it on
another domain its not accessible either.

When we run "net share" on the server, it shows all shared folders
including Admin$, IPC$, C$

Thanks for responding,

Stefan

Is the SBS 2003 server sharing its IPC$?

a. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press ENTER.
b. At the command prompt, type net share, and then press ENTER.
c. Look for the Admin$, C$, and IPC$ administrative shares in the list
of shares.

What happens if you change the default gateway on a workstation to:
192.168.16.2 (the SBS server)?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

The server has a dual port NIC with one of the ports disabled at this
time. This server runs DNS, DHCP and WINS and we are using a seperate
machine with ISA Server installed to get out onto the Internet.Below
is the Ipconfig /all results for the server and further down for a
client machine.
