New Windows XP Pro notebook with SP2 can't attach to W2000 Svr

[TopicsIT]

I have a brand new laptop that I cannot get to attach to the Win2000 Server.
When I drill down through My Network Places, I see the domain, but cannot
drill down to the domain and see the network servers. I get an error message
"Workgroup is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this sever to find out if you
have access permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is not
currently available" The user is a Domain Administrator and has
Administrative rights.The user is not new. It's just a new computer for the
user. HELP!!

The computer needs to be joined to the domain. System Properties->Computer
Name->Change.

That 's one of the things I did, but it didn't help. I also added a new user
to the Domain and logged in with the new user and that didn't work.
