Servers do not "talk" to other servers except under very special circumstances: a) Replication b) FEDERATED engine operations c) NDB Cluster operations Unless you are trying to create one of those situations, your servers will not talk to each other. See the manual for details on how to establish one of those types of connections if that is what you are trying to do. Are you actually having problems connecting from a Win2K _*client*_ to the server running on your Tiger machine? Or is it something else entirely?
