Cannot ping local system by machine name IP address
Hello,
I am having a particular problem with a system in my test environment. ( call it Machine A) . I can ping other Machines from Machine A but no one can ping Machine A. Machine A cannot Ping itself using its FQDN or IP address. Machine A gets successful results when pinging 127.0.0.1.
I have tried to flush DNScache and did a IPCONFIG /release and /renew still with no luck in regards to pinging itself successfully. Any help is appreciate with this.

What OS are we talking about? XP? Windows 2003?
ASKER
Windows XP Pro is the OS, Firewall is not enabled
Actually, I have noticed this behavior on a few workstation, but didn't spend any time looking at it. I will check into it today, and if this question has not been resolved, I will post the results
would you provide more info, namely:
ipconfig /all
route print
ipconfig /all
route print

Hello,
This isue has been resolved as there were mutiple firewalls enabled on this system. I haad veirfied that the local XP firewall was disabled but this system had other firewalls enabled unbeknownst to me. I will award the points to ashutosh_kumar for assisitng me with my oversight.
