Hi all,

From an XP box on my LAN, I am able to ping other device on my
LAN. When I attempt to ping the XP box from other devices on my
LAN, it just times out.

At first, I thought it was the Windows firewall but it is
disabled.

Anything else that I might be missing in this Windows
configuration?

Thanks!

Almost always this is a firewall issue.

Check for other firewalls on your computer including "hidden" ones like
the Cisco VPN client whose firewall is enabled even when the VPN client
isn't.

HTH,
John
