I can ping HP-PC-XP from any machine on my LAN (debian (debian 5.0_,
ubuntuserver (ubutuserver 8.04), the mac (x10.5), and another xp box (xp
sp3)). the firewall on the xp box is down (the app is not running, and
windoz firewall disabled).
the log file is attached.
you will notice that the machine name in the log is hp_office_pc (it is the
same machine I refer to in the postings as HP-PC-XP.
