Okay, since everyone that responded said USE WINS, I gave it a try. It did
not change a darn thing. I have never used WINS in the past, and I will
probably never use WINS in my whole life. All WINS does is match a computer
name to an IP where it cannot be done normally. That's not what I needed. I
needed to get to a share on a centrally located server, and even using the
actual IP was still not working ( \\10.0.10.2\sharename ) Thanks for the
suggestion anyway.

I did manage to fix the problem on my own. I simply had to enable "Client
for Microsoft Networks" on my dial-up adapter. I don't remember having to do
this in the past on NT Workstation, but maybe the "Upgrade" to Win2k and
WinXP has changed things.

Thanks

-Curtis
