Bob- First I would say check all the TCP/IP stuff on the target XP box and the source box. If nothing can reach it then either a) nothing is leaving the source box, b)nothing is finding (routing or subnet issue) the target box or c)things are finding their way to the target box, but are being blocked somewhere a la a firewall. Are IP, subnet, gateway, DNS correct on both machine? Can both machines ping (in this order) loop back IP, NIC IP, gateway IP, external IP?
A while back in the thread you asked about enabling Netbios. Look on the WINS tab in TCP/IP of the relevant network connection. XP SP2 firewall has some decent logging built into it. Perhaps turning the FW on, enable logging, and then try to hit (figuratively) the machine for a while, and then take a look at what it is in the log. Good luck.

I have a WinXP-SP2 machine that I am trying to monitor with SA and I cannot get it to respond to anything. I have tried ping, net view, RDC, http, telnet, disk space, ..... I have tried to connect from machines on the same subnet and from machines on the other side of the network. I have moved to another office to make sure the problem was not with the network jack/cable. I have enabled the wireless adapter on this machine and it acts just like the wired connection. Before you ask, yes all of the respective services are turned ON and working. Before you ask, yes the WinXP-SP2 firewall is turned OFF and there is no other firewall software installed, that I know of. >From the WinXP machine itself everything seems to work OK. I can ping, net view, telnet and RDC out to any other machines on my network. Internet access is OK. I have the Win2003 server admin pack installed and I can easily attach to any number of Win2003 servers and manage their services via the appropriate snapins to MMC. I am using this machine and MS Outlook 2003 to compose and send this email. This one has me pulling out what little hair I have left. Any one have any ideas as to why this machine will not respond to any probes from the network ???????
