Can ping one machine, but not vice versa

[Quad]

i have 2 machines:

1) win98se, 2 nics: one ip from isp, second ip 10.0.0.1 -- machine running nat router
2) win2k, 1 nic: ip 10.0.0.2

the win98 can ping the win2k...but the win2k can't ping the win98
anyone know what's wrong?

thx in advance

Any firewall software blocking the pings? Have you tried using windump to see what is going on with the network?

You can try using 2K's "route" command to set a static route to the 98's "internal" NIC and see if that helps.

Personally, if I were forced to choose between the 2 windoze boxen, I would put the 2 NICs and NAT on the 2K box, as it can handle ICS and that sort of stuff much better than 98.
