Re: alias could not be opened on Windows Network

I cannot find the solution to this problem, PLEASE HELP!!!!

My Powerbook is the sole Mac on a Windows XP network. All of the windows computers are a part of the same workgroup, as is the powerbook. All of the windows seem to be able to see and share files between them. The Powerbook can see the the computers that are part of the workgroup, but is unable to mount them for access to the shared files.

I was once able to access these files with the Powerbook but all of a sudden I now get " The alias "servername" could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found."

I attempt to connect through Go/connect to server and select the browse option, at which point all computers on the workgroup appear but are not accessible.

Thank you for your help in advance.
