Hi,
This comes up almost daily on the Usenet Windows groups. I never have seen a solution but if you want to give it a shot research it at groups.google.com

It's a DNS issue, point you Pri DNS to your local DNS box and Add your host name into the forward zone table(s), this is not a NetBIOS issue if your running windows 2000 or better-> , but it could be if your running old 9x boxes.
