To use dynamic addressing in TCP/IP, make sure your workstations have TCP/IP bound to their adapters & remove other protocols you don't need, if necessary.

Also, make sure WINS and DHCP services are working properly on the server. Doesn't seem like you have any need for a domain with two workstations, so there's no need for 2000 to be a domain server.

Hope it works!

make sure your ip address are on the same network.
try something simple like 192.168.0.1 ,192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.3
see if this works
