Networking Anomaly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by Augix »

I have two computers (1 & 2) connecting to a network. 1 & 2 can both connect (ping) to the router, and can both connect (ping) to a server that I also have on the network. A & b cannot connect (ping) to eachother. I have tried removing the TCP/IP protocol and reinstalling it, and this does not fix the problem. Anyone heard of this or have ideas on what I can try next?

Installing NetBUEI on all machines will probably clear up your problems, too.

If any of these machines are connected to the 'net, you should definitely install NetBUEI, and unbind file and printer sharing from TCP/IP...
