Could be a WINS issue. Try stopping and restarting the browser service on you NT PDC. Look for issues in the event logs on the PDC and WINS Servers.

yep i would agree...ensure they all point to the same WINS server as well

sounds like a browser election was forced...client machine somwhere prolly won it somehow...so you prolly have one machine out there somewhere that can view the information

are you able to go to start|run and \\server to enumerate all available shares?
