quoted from http://www25.brinkster.com/ChicagoTech Workgroup common Issue 2 - problem in a mixed OS
Symptoms: 1) win9x computers can see each others but not W2K or XP. 2) win9x and W2K/XP can ping each other by using IP but not computer names. 3) Net view \\computername shows error 53.
Resolutions: this is a name resolution issue. Since this is a workgroup without WINS server, you may need to enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP on W2K/XP.

What is not working? Can they not ping each other? Can they not see each others shares? Can one ping the other, but not the other way around?
