The only possibility I can think of is that your notebook is not
actually using the address that you think it is using. Are you sure
you do not have DHCP enabled?
Try telneting to a VMS machine. From the terminal session, so a "show
terminal." Is the reported IP addresss what you think it should be?

| Make sure that the IP address you think you're using isn't the one
for your ethernet adapter. The dialup side gets its own IP address...
and btw: Even if you have an assigned IP address for your notebook
dialup adapter and don't have DHCP enabled, some of our dial-ins will
still force a DHCP assigned IP address on your DUN connection...

The modem card is out of the PCmcia slot, only the ethernet
card is installed.
It appears that we may not be able to ping any of the PCs in
our group though, nor can any of them ping themselves. When
a ping to a pc is issued, the address is looked up and
reported ok, then 4 time outs are reported.

| 2939.4 | try this... | ODIXIE::SIMPSONT | PC = world's biggest con job! | Wed May 28 1997 09:55 | 8 |
| Are you trying to ping using the node name or by IP address directly?
Try pinging by address... That should work without help from the
gateway... Also you might want to try a tracert command. That should
give you an idea how far you are getting before the ping dies...

| Have you tried winipcfg command and compare it to a known working
system within the group.

It would seem that of the two servers that I dial in to, one always
provides its own IP regardless of the client setting. The other
server was supposed to honor the client's request but it is broken.
Depending on the port that answers the incoming call (it appears),
either a name/ip pair are assigned, or my PC name/ip pair are used.
The hard wire problem with PC not being able ping itself went away
on all clients -- no idea what happened there.
I did pick up a nasty problem along the way with the notebook though,
probably as a result of removing/installing the network software. Now
if the ethernet card is plugged into the PCMCIA slot and I establish
a dialup connection, the PC hangs hard when the connection is disconnected.
To the several folks here, and by mail suggested using telnet to
identify the name/ip....THANK YOU!
