The XP box is running IPV6 (I don't know whether you had intended it
to do that or not), but I can't see in interface in the 192.168.40.0
network and it doesn't look as though you are mapping the IPV4
192.168.40.0 address into the IPV6 format (I think 192.168.40 would
show up as C0:A8:28, or something like that, in IPV6).
You say you can ping the server and putty to it, is that from the XP
box?
My guess is that there is a problem mapping drives because the
IPV6/IPV4 setup.
