I have a weird ploblem, I don’t know how to solve
without reinstalling all the involved PCs
I have a network composed of 12 pcs, all using Windows XP HE, working like workgroup. All the PCs had static IP address and they were using NetBios over TCP. After making the change to dynamic addressing (since I needed to use the DHCP service provided by the ASDL Modem of my ISP), two out of 12 machines no longer can resolve names of PCs using ping. For example: if I write: ping “machinename”, in the other 10 PCs I receive their corresponding IP addreses and I obtain thier answers but if I make same ping to the mentioned two PCs, I get no answer and both two display a message to me about the host cannot be found. All the PCs has the same network hardware and the same configuration and all of the others services and the Intetnet ASDL Link work perfectly. Before making the change, this problem did not appear. Somebody has some idea about how to Troubleshooting this problem.
TIA,
Richard
