Network error



I turned on the computers this morning as normal, and machine 1 works
fine, whereas when machine 2 attempts to connect to machine 1 through
the mapped drive I get this error:

the semaphore timeout has expired

Does anyone know what this is?

Both machines are running windows 2000, and its just a pier to pier
network with only two computers.

I can ping machine 1 from machine 2, machine 1 can see machine 2, but
machine 2 cant see machine 1 anywhere.

Any help appreciated, as I cant connect to my drive without it.
