    Log the administrator off of all other connections and re-try

    Sounds like your DNS is not configured correctly.

    Post an IPCONFIG /ALL from the server and the problem workstation (Any
    firewalling going on between the server and the workstation?)

    clients ipconfig /all:

    Host Name..........................tech-office
    Primary DNS suffix................
    Node Type..........................Unknown
    IP Routing Enabled................no
    WINS Proxy Enabled..............no

    Ethernet LAN
    Physical Address...................(not showing you that because i'm paranoid)
    DHCP enabled.......................no
    IP address............................10.22.13.33
    Subnet Mask.........................255.255.193.0
    DNS servers..........................10.22.13.33

    ok, lemme edit that previous statement.

    there are no firewalls. to be honest this machine is the problem, i have about 80 other clients who are just fine, just this machine is the one giving me problems.
