Do you have an domain with windows 2000 AD? if yes then check your dns address. else if you have an Windows NT domain then check WINS configuration.

I could be that your win2k domain controller does not have file and print sharing enabled.
Goto the properties of your LAN connection.
Check the File and print sharing box
click OK

Is Hotline legit? If so, then you need in defined in lookup tables. If not, it is more likely that domain is not spelled correctly on the desktops.  From a good desktop, try UserManager for viewing the domains available.
