Sysvol and other shared folders not accessible on DC

Its all started from XP client not able to join to a Windows 2003 Server DC,
error was "Network Path not found" then after some research I found that
Sysvol and other shared folders itself not accessible from any clients on
Network so I think this could be causing client not access the DC

Appreciate your help and comments

These symptoms can be caused be numerous issues.

To better assist, please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC and from the XP client. Also if there are more than one DC, please post the other DC's ipconfig /all as well.

Also post any EventID# and Source name from any of the logs on the DC, please.

This info will help understand what's going on with your DC(s).

Thank you.
