Strange issue (system acting as if it had a firewall installed and turned on)

I have just reinstalled Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server on and HP
Kayak XU/300. This is the OS that we had been running fine for years, then
a crash and the re-install. The system reinstalled without problem, was
able to reinstall some of the applications that were there originally. The
problem is, the box can not be seen on the network, if the telnet service is
turned on, you can not telnet into the box. Remote desktop does not work,
even some VPN software, that work before, now does not. If this was XP, or
some other OS that had an included firewall, I would say the firewall was
turned on, but that is not the case here. Does anyone have any ideas on how
to fix this problem?

Thanks
 
Can you ping by name? by IP address? Can you see any other devices via NIC
from this machine? If you;

ipconfig /all

are the results as expected?

Yes, I can ping its name - and get the expected results back. I can ping
outside of the network. It appears that I can go out - things just can not
come in; from other systems, UNIX and Windows, I can not ping this box,
nothing can come to or into this box.

Thanks

ipconfig /all -- is what is expected - If a share is created, no you can
not connect. If a printer is attached, clients can not connect. It will
connect to shares on other machines, other machines can not connect anything
that this box shares out.

yes, all are visible. I can see other systems and shares on the network. I
do not have any hiden shares. This is puzzling -- nothing appears to be out
of the ordinary, everything seem right.
Thanks again

Dave Patrick said:
Is the share visible? What happens when you try? Is this box multi-homed?

My mistake, no it is not Mulit-homed and the other question I missed
totally.
Please resend.
Thanks

You forgot to answer the other two.

Resend? You can just look back in the thread. What happens when you try to
map a drive to the share? How about the administrative shares? You might try
disjoin/rejoin the domain.

Mapping a drive from this machine - times out. Joining and re-joining the
domain works fine. I will try the administrative share and let you know -
my guess is - they will time out also.

This isn't helping. You don't seem to want or know how to provide the info
that is required to trouble shoot a problem like this. I'd suggest you hire
someone to help you with this.

I appreciate your time and assistance in this matter. In troubleshooting
this issue, I do believe that I have looked and truned over the necessary
rocks; do not understand why this system is being a problem - multiple other
systems are running without problems.

Again, thanks for your assistance.
