Setting up NT domain problem

I have a problem with setting up Windows NT domain. I have installed Windows NT server on one computer and I have another two computers with Windows 2000 professional that will work as workstations. Windows NT should act as primary domain controller. The problem is that I can not ping server from these computers, while they can see each other in network. Can you give me some advice regarding this problem?

Hello. You should perform several checks to troubleshoot problems with Windows NT domain. First ping your own client machine. I do not think to use loopback device (127.0.0.1) but IP address that this computer has on network (for example 192.168.1.50). If this goes well and you have response then you should check if subnet masks are OK. All three computers should have same subnet masks (255.255.255.0 for example) and servers IP address should be 192.168.1.xxx if we assume that you have given address from this range.
