It sounds like the address resolution of the process at the win2000 
machine is broken.
Could you test to connect two processes running at the win2000 machine 
and see
if that works?

Furthermore, if you examine a ticket you'll see that it contains an Ip 
number and a Port.
Does the Ip num found in the ticket from the win2000 mashine match the 
ip if you
run 'ipconfig'?
