Dennis,
You won't ever see the Windows 2000 computer using the Network Map. The LLTD
Responder, which is required for this to work, isn't available for Windows 2000.

As far as seeing another computer in the Network window (aka "My Network Places"
/ "Network Neighborhood"), this is generally caused by a misconfigured or
overlooked personal firewall, or other security program.

You can diagnose the problem, using logs from "browstat status", "ipconfig
/all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from each computer.
Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions precisely
(Download browstat, and note how to run a Vista command window as
administrator!):

Thanks Chuck. You've given me a lot to do. It must be a security thing at
the Vista end since the other system connects to other machines. This Vista
came with Norton.

Dennis,
Take it one step at a time, and test frequently. And ask questions here.
