The LMHosts file is generally used to do ip to LanManager name addressing. It can be used as the seed file for WINDS addressing (which is another way of saying the same as the line above 8^) ). Paul, when you're in Cardiff next, bring the errant machine you. You never know, another set of eyes might see something obvious.

A number of people made useful suggestions including making sure the was an entry in the Windoze LMHOSTS file but to no avail.
Sounds very wierd & painful.
I was one of the people who probably suggested editing 'hosts', since it did work for me a couple of times. But you say 'LMHOSTS'...
There are two similarly named files in my Win98se system:
C:\Windows\LMHOSTS.SAM
C:\windows\hosts [no suffix at all]
This second file is the one I suggest you try. I know little about Win32 TCP/IP beahvior, so perhaps this is just supersition.
