WIndows / Linux Communication Issues

Hello,

I have the following machines on my network:

Linux (Debian Woody)
Windows XP Pro
Windows Server 2003

The Linux machine can talk to the Windows XP (ping, http, etc).
The Windows XP machine can talk to the Linux machine (ping, http, ssh,
etc).
The Windows XP machine can talk to the Windows Server 2003 machine
(ping, http, rdc, etc).

The Linux and Windows Server 2003 machines CANNOT talk at all!
Nothing! No ping responses, nothing!

I am specifying the machines by their IP address.

Does anybody know of any issues relating to Linux / Windows 2003
communication?

Thanks in advance,

Nathan

Is there a firewall running on the Win2k Server which blocks your pings?

You could download ethereal for Windows to analyze your network traffic.
This can help you to figure out why this two machines can't communicate.
