Networking problem between WinME and Win2K/XP machine

Greetings everyone:

I'm having a problem with Networking between WinME and Win2K/XP machine. The Win2K/XP machine was originally ME until it was upgraded to WinXP Pro Beta Build 2428 last week.

The machines are setup as follows under the workgroup DNALOGIC.NET:
Win2K/XP - lunar
WinME - solar

What seems to happen is the Win2K/XP machine can see the WinME machine fine via browsing DNALOGIC.NET as the user admin. Both machines have only one account and the name is vince with the same password. On the WinME machine, when I browse the DNALOGIC.NET, it only shows itself as solar but not the lunar machine, I can however get to it with the UNC paths of \\lunar
so it's not a issue of the network. WinXP doesn't have NetBeui so on the WinME machine, I made the default protocol as TCP/IP and I can ping the other machine but how does one select the default protocol to use in Win2K/WinXP? Can someone help me out in getting the WinME machine to see the WinXP machine via browsing? Also, how does one logout of a remote machine on the LAN after logging in for browsing under a certain login/password? Thanks!
