I have a strange network problem which is hunting me down for a while.
Hope someone out there can give me a clue.

The network: P-to-P IPX/SPX network using win98 and 10BaseT NIC, UTP
cable and hub.

The problem: PC5 and PC3 couldn't see PC1 in network neighborhood, but I
can map network drive (\\PC1\shared\ as drive X) from PC5 and PC3, and
access PC1 with no problem as long as I direct point network drive to
the resourse location on PC1. However \\PC1\ is not accessable from both
PC5 and PC3. All other computers can see/access each other with no
problem. PC5 and PC3 don't have problem with any other computer but PC1.
PC1 has no problem with any computers.

Can anyone tell me what is the problem?

Thanks

J Qian
