Enable your firewall to allow the ip address address' on both of your boxes
to "trust"
the other. Norton Firewall has this feature. If your XP fire wall is
enabled turn it off and get a real one.

Good Luck

Name Resolution, what method of Name Resolution do you use for YOUR network,
WINS, DNS or HOSTS ?
Look into WINS, DNS & HOSTS for more info on Name Resolution.
