What happens if you run the network setup wizard on the XP box again?

restore the xp rights to browse in win2k server?

Sit down in front of the XP box, run the wizard again. Does it help? Use the
same exact settings you used last time - all of them except maybe file and
print sharing should be the same so make sure you turn that on. If you can't
use the wizard on the XP box because of this than there's more of a problem
than 2k not being able to be browsed.
