Hi,

I am running on a w2k3 domain. I have a 2 PCs (PC1 and PC2), I am logged
onto PC1 with admin account but I am unable to ping or connect to PC2. ...


I have similar situation, running 2 xp boxes. In looking deeper into
the bad one, I find other things wrong, with what appeared to be a
'working' PC. ...

Try going to "set up your home network" and re do that, including the

Did it, similar issues - long delays, and finally "an error occured
during configuration of the network on the computer." Re-install (of
something) is looking like the only path forward.

Thanks, though.
