I am attempting to map a drive from an XP Pro box to a
2000 Pro box. I have no problem mapping the other
direction (ie from 2000 to XP) I can even map XP to XP
without any issues. What is it about the 2000/XP
relationship that is keeping my 2000 machines from being
able to access XP machines??

You need to be a lot more specific in your report, e.g.
- How exactly are you trying to map drives?
- What is the name of the share?
- What happens when you try run this command from
a Command Prompt:
net use x: \\WinXPPC\SomeShare
