Ok. The problem has been fixed. As it turned out, it was not the Win95
machine at all. The DHCP server on the Windows Server had suddenly
started acting up, but there were no messages reported under the
Event Viewer. Re-booting the Server fixed the problem. Don't know the
cause of it in the first place though.
Thanks to all who responded.
