I've been trying to access a wokmate's computer on the the same domain as i am by using start>run, but all I keep getting is a message "network path not found". I can access other computers which he also can access, these other computers can access both of our computers, what could be wrong here?

1. Is his computer registered on DNS? Can you do a nslookup for his computer name?
2. Is the Workstation and Server services running to allow access to shares?
3. Is sharing disabled somehow?
4. What version of Windows is installed?
