Not sure. Run ipconfig /all on the computer in question to see what is reported as
far as adapters and IP addresses. One guess is that in one case host name resolution
is being used and in the other netbios name resolution is being used. I would check
dns zone, wins database, hosts file and lmhosts file for any wrong entries. Using
Ethereal to capture the packet sequence while trying to ping or nbtstat -a the target
computer would probably help narrow the issue down. -- Steve
