Something is seriously wrong with our network. A station with Win 9x still believes another workstation exists, even though the other workstation is disconnected. When it was connected, I was able to use the other workstation to view the files of the workstation in question. Next, I tried to ping the workstation in question from the server, but it wouldn't work. I tried pinging from the workstation to the server and it wouldn't work. What's wrong? No ipchains are running. The cables are tightly connected. Could it be the NIC?
