  by IP address or machine name? Maybe DNS is pointing to wrong IP address.

  Double-check the IP settings on each system (netmask, ip address, DNS and or WINS, LMHOSTS or HOST file, etc.) Also, what NOS are you using (Windows Server 2000, 2003, Linux, etc.)?

    You need to respond that way to a discussion that was started last November? Sheer genius.
