does he have a reserved address on another network?
or,
is the address and gateway he gets from dhcp correct for the segment he's
plugged into?
if he sends a dhcp request, and gets an address, the network connection is
(probably) up.. .

Check to see if you're getting the right default gateway and mask from
DHCP. Also try a "route print" and see if there are any old, misconfigured
static routes hanging around.

Please respond
to "NT System
Admin Issues"
Loopback - yes
IP address - yes
Router - no
Itself by name - no way to resolve it's own name
DNS by IP and name - no and no
It does get an IP from DHCP and the IP and Mac address are in arp cache.

Can you ping Loopback (127.0.0.1)?
Can it ping itself by number?
Can it ping the router by number?
Can it ping itself by name?
Can it ping your DNS server by number?
Can it ping your DNS server by name?
Somewhere in that string of pings you should be able figure out where the
problem is.

try using NBTSTAT -n (at a dos prompt) to see if there are any conflicts.

Subject: Strange TCP/IP issue
I have a strange TCP/IP issue that came up this morning and is still
unresolved. A use could no longer communicate with any domain resources on
his laptop. The computer got an IP from the DHCP server but that was it. No
mapping drives, no network login, no pinging. It could resolve names from
it's lmhosts file and the IP and MAC address would show up in the arp
cache.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the NIC and TCP protocol a couple times and
it
couldn't fix the problem.
Anyone have any ideas?
