sorry for the off-topic post: I just got a new larger drive for my
thinkpad, and installed windows2000 on it (old drive also had w2k). now
computer can't find the other computers in my workgroup - "net view" is
empty and "dir \\othername" gets an error message. networking clearly
works, and I can ping the other computer.

I'm probably missing some simple configuration?

thanks and apologies again for off-topic post
