We have a server that is running Windows 2003, and most of our computers are
running Windows XP Pro.  I have one computer that is not showing up in the
Network.  I can search the Active Directory and I do find the computer, but
I can't for the life of me figure out why it is not showing up with the
other computers.  Any ideas are appreciated.

It could be the computer browser issue. Any system error if running net view
the problematic computer? Do you have WINS server or enable NetBIOS over
TCP/IP?
