try to create a test environment

I have a win2003/SUS server and WinXp workstation. Both
systems have protocol IPX/SPX/NetBIOS installed and they
are connected to a miniHUB. One is connected to 'in'
port and other is connected 'out' port. For some reason
these two systems could not see each other. I could not
ping the server from the workstation.

Can anyone help.

Novell has an IPXPing but PING (Packet InterNetwork Groper) is a TCP/IP
utility which you do not show as having installed and has nothing to do with
the protocols you mentioned.
