James, I had similar issues on my home network from my desktop firewall blocking on netbios resolution. The other possibility is that who ever is the browse master has gone stupid and needs a reboot :^)

One user in particular has a laptop and he is unable to access his local server. I am able to ping the server and it resolves name to IP. If I open the IP from a run command it shows all shared folders and printers. If I however do the same to the name of the server no shares or printers are prevalent, this includes the FQDN. When looking at an IPCONFIG /all everything seems fine including default gateway etc. I did release and renew his address and also for good measure did a: NBTSTAT -RR IPCONFIG /flushdns IPCONFIG /registerdns All this was to no avail. I did notice that when I went through Network Neighbourhood that it said his domain was inaccessible. I verified under AD Users and Computers that his account was not locked out or anything. His Nic parameters are also fine!!!!!!! A couple of weeks ago users home drives were moved to another server and this user didn't think it effected him but he had offline files set up. In this instance I re-enabled the share and cut the ties gently so no rogue elements existed under offline files and folders. Any ideas would be grateful.
