Default Can't access local network anymore

Hi,

I have a peer to peer network, one a 98 box and the other a XP box, all
this was working fine last week, but today I can't access each
computer. ie I can't ping each other's computers IP address (Request
timed out).

I can locally ping each computers IP address, computer name and its
loopback address so I assume that the cards and cabling are fine.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.


Joe
