Anil, have you tried using the IP address? Please give the exact error message you are getting, it will help narrow down the problem.

Also, can you ping the hostname or ip address from you Windows client using the DOS window?

Are you running on Windows XP? It may be that the machine needs to have its network card active - that is, the machine must be participating in a network.
