Sure...

Looks like there is no NetBios Name resolution method that is working.

Is there a WINS server on the network?  Is there any server on the network?

Which poster are you in that thread?

If you are the last one, the solution is fairly easy... create local
accounts on the Win2K machine that have the same username/password as the
users on the Win9x machines, or enable the guest account on the Win2K
machine.  Then the clients will either be able to authenticate to get the
browse list, or they will be able to do it without authentication (via the
Guest account).

I believe that SP4 changed the "AllowAnonymous" setting, which is the root
of the problem.  But don't quote me on that...
