My internet access through this server is okay Netbuei and tcpip  protocols is loaded on the nic on the server . The resources on the server which I require access to is the printer and a couple of directories. any assistance here would be great as my networking skills have lots of holes in them

Win3K ?? That's a new one on me ! I guess you mean Win2K.

If this system has been "upgraded" to an Active Directory (AD) Domain 
Controller in native mode, you will not be able to connect to it. The 
same is not true if the DC has been installed as a mixed mode, NT aware 
Domian controller. There were also some fixes in W2k Sp1 and Sp2 to 
ensure comms with OS/2 systems still work, but I would expect you have 
these installed.

Is this Windoze system a works one ? i.e. not your system / If so you're 
probably "stuffed" otherwise you could demote the system back to a stand 
alone server and if you have to "DCPROMO" it again but this time in 
compatibility mode.

Cheers/2

Ed.
