Thanks for the suggestions:

OS is XP

MAC address for machine matches what is on the switch.

Tried turning off wireless interface -- no difference

IP Address is assigned by DHCP reservation.  It already is on same VLAN as all 
targets, and same VLAN as all machines that cannot ping it.  I did not try a 
static IP.  I have however confirmed that if I map a drive to a server share 
the server sees that the connection is from the correct address -- but cannot 
ping it, nor can any remote management be done from the server.

RPC & other services are all in the same state as an identical machine that I 
can remotely manage & can ping.
Network Card settings are also in same state.

There was one additional network component on the bad machine "Oddyssey network 
agent".
No change whether it is enabled/disabled.

I won't be able to do anything further until next Monday.
Maybe it will go away by itself over the weekend.

Put WireShark or similar on source and destination and see what you get back.

what happens if you statically assign this laptop and put it on the same VLAN 
as the source? Same results?

________________________________



I have a single laptop in our department that I cannot ping.
The user in question is able to access all network resources.
Windows firewall is off, and no other firewall is running
I have verified that all DHCP & DNS entries are correct.
The user can ping anything on the network.

Other symptoms:
The machine loses connection to one server periodically.
This is indicated by the fact that his computer shows the "offline" tray icon.
Any time this happens, he can choose "synchronize", and he always is back 
online.
He can access any internet/intranet site w/o problem at any time.

Switch port counters show no problems.
Changing switch port makes no difference.

Any helpful suggestions appreciated.

Regards,
--BM
