Hi Lonny,
client fd,conf file does not have any place where the server ip or name is
defined.It justs has the name of the director, which I believe has nothing
to do with the access. I do however remeber while installing the client it
did asked for the the server name, and I gave FQDN there. My host file on
both the systems don't have the server IP, but the older one is somehow
pinging the server with just the hostname, while the new machine needs a
FQDN to ping.
Regards

This looks like a DNS or hosts file issue. Are you using FQDNs? does
everything resolve from both sides and if you do a lookup for your
director's
IP for the new XP machine?
