I have a domain setup with 1 windows 95 machine 6 2000 pro machines and 1 XP Pro. I have DNS setup and all is playing together except win 95 and win xp. I need to print to the win 95 printer share from XP and it keeps telling me no network found or I don't have access to that resource. I am able to connect to the win 95 printer from every win 2000 pro computer. Any feedback would be very helpful!
 
Yes it is using TCP/IP. I can ping the computer name of the windows 95 so I know it is resolving the name on the DNS server. But I can not see it from the XP pro machine.
 
Are there shared folders on 95 machine? If so, can XP machine see them? (Is the 95 machine appearing under the domain in My network places?) Can the XP machine see the 2k machines (and any shares)?
