Re: Cannot ping machine

Sometimes these kinds of issues are the hardest to resolve. Have
you tried to ping the PC itself ( 127.0.0.1 ). Obviously, it's not a
router setting as it would block other's on the Domain. I guess you
could boot to Safe Mode with Networking and see if it will accept
and respond to Ping traffic. That might indicate it's a 3rd-party app
that's responsible. Afraid I'm about out of suggestions.

There is something unique on the pc, maybe some type of software but I see
nothing unusual installed. Oh, no wireless (all wired) and all pc's are
members of the same domain.

Thanks for the follow-up info. Assume all the client PC's are using
DHCP for configuration and that all the computers are members of
the same Workgroup ( MSHome ) ? Do they all use Wired NIC's
or a combination of Wired/Wireless ? If any Wireless, using XP's
native Wireless applet or the NIC vendor support applet ?

Sorry for the endless questions, but something must be unique on the
non-responsive computer.

LAN and yes a router is being used. Responses from other machines on the
LAN
are fine it's only this one machine. All machines have Symantec antivirus
installed.

Where are the incoming pings being sent from ( LAN or WAN ) ?
If a LAN is there a Router in use. What other Security software is
being used and is it the same on all machines ?

Have an XP SP2 laptop with the firewall disabled. I can ping machines
from
the pc in question but the machine itself won't respond when pinged. I
see
no unusual programs or software that would be blocking it.

Any ideas?
