Sounds like the firewall is stopping the connections

Except that it is responding to pings...

So no machines can browse to exchange?

Can you browse to it by IP from another machines?

yes i can browse it from another systems....
But you can't browse it by name now?  can you rephrase the problem for me?
Did you check the firewall on the Exchange server?

firewall on the exchange server is diabled.... kieran... from all the network amchines are able to ping with ip and name as well...but from the server i can only ping with ip address not with a name and vice versa from the echange as well.......
Check AD DNS and WINS ... is the server registered? If not so the easiest way is to do a restart of the server.
ipconfig /flushdns on the server that cant ping by name. Also check the hosts file.
