Unable to Ping a local hostI have multiple XP (3) & Win 2000 (1) systems on a home (workgroup) network
running through a internet gateway. I have no problems sharing the internet with all the systems. The problem is, I'm unable to ping one of my systems. I've made sure all the settings are correct. The funny thing is that on the system that I can not ping, it will ping other systems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
