Clients not found with Windows 2000

We just changed our back up machine from Windows NT to 2000. I am able to see clients on our old NT machine but not on the new 2000 machine. I have run the Live Network Test using the machine name and each is found, with the correct address, but does not appear during the Multicast search.

 

 

 

I am running Retro 5.1.

Four possible reasons:

 

1. Server is in different subnet then clients

2. Firewall blocking port 497

3. Router (or other hardware/software) blocking UDP packets from being transmitted

4. Network and/or hardware problems (cables, NIC, drivers, etc.) Give the server and a client static IP addresses and connect them directly with a crossover cable to help isolate the problem.
