I have a network--NT domain Controller--XP desktops--about 25 ---I have 3
desktops that I can not ping, yet are seen in the Network nieghborhood, They
have access to all the resources on the network & the internet. They can
ping out to us or the servers, DHCP enabled--all on the same subnet--I am
confused. How can these three desktops ping out, and have access to network
resources & Internet, yet I can't get a reply from them? Any help would be
most appreciated. Thanks

Is the XP firewall set to block ICMP messages?

How can I check, (is it within Firewall setings)?? Thanks for the response

John,
I just checked it out, and you were correct--Firewall setting did not allow
for echo requests. I changed the setting, we are all good now. tHnaks for
the tip Greatly appreciated!!!
