are you sure you're typing your own IP address right? Can you ping your own
computer by IP and not by name? KB wrote in message ... G'day If I can ping other computers on the network, but not my own, what have I done wrong? Richard |

Pretty sure, I had eight hours of practice!
I'm using IP Address, as reveled by IPCONFIG and other things, not computer name. Richard -----Original Message----- are you sure you're typing your own IP address right?

Richard The most likely cause is an improperly configured firewall program on the computer that can't ping itself. To find out, disable and un-install ZoneAlarm, Norton Internet Security, etc. Then, go to Start | Run | Msconfig | Startup and disable any firewall remnants. If you've previously un-installed a firewall, re-install it and then un-install it using the procedure provided by the program's author. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
