do you have WINS running too? Is it an issue between pinging with a netbios
name vs. a fully qualified name?

Subject: cannot ping by name
Hi guys,
>From one particular server, I cannot ping "some" servers by name. I can ping
the same servers by IP address or I can do nslookup. I am sure it is not
name
servers issue because all other machines can ping any machine by name or IP
address on the network. I also checked the DNS entry on that particular
server, everything looks right. Any thought on this? You can be sarcastic!!
I
don't mind. By the way, this is the only 2000 server on an NT network, if
that
makes any difference!.
