Are you running DNS on your server?
Yes.
Are your workstations pointing to the server or an outside DNS?
The workstations are pointing to the server. The server forwards to
outside dns.
Sounds like the one workstation has become the master browser.
That could be.
Look at your event logs on the server and workstations for a "browser war".
Damn. Nothing there.
Google can help you with "master browser troubleshooting"
I'll get TechRepublic's Master Browser Tool Kit and take a look. Thanks
a lot, Bob.

Subject: Wierd problem with server
Windows Server 2003. 5 workstations - 4 running Windows XP SP2, one
running Windows 2000 with all service packs.
If one particular workstation is running (Windows XP sp2), everything is
ok; if that workstation is NOT running, others cannot connect to network
drives (including those on the server) saying that those drives are busy
or not available. All proper services are available and running on the
workstations. Any ideas?
